[GRASS-dev] Help -> "About GRASS" broken

[Maris Nartiss]

Hello,
I changed code a bit to not fail so hard in r53238 (6.4) and r53239
(7). Added one extra string 'unknown'

Still sometimes it will report wrong data, as Python's
getdefaultlocale is broken (by design?). On my system it sometimes
returns ('lv_LV', 'ISO8859-13') (as somewhere ISO encoding is set to
be default for lv_LV), still my system doesn't support provided ISO
encoding and attempt to use it in i.e. setlocale would cause only a
failure.


Maris.
