Bug#317981: gdesklets: LANG settings makes Memo desklet die

[Norbert Preining]

Package: gdesklets
Version: 0.35.1-1
Severity: normal


Starting gdesklets from LANG=de_at@euro and starting the Memo gdesklets 
breaks with
invalid literal for float(): 1.6
/usr/share/gdesklets/Sensors/IconButton/__init__.py

Setting LANG=C before starting gdesklets daemon fixes this problem.

(But still configuration does not work, see bug 317978)
