Title:
  No locale setting for mythtv-backend causes segfault scanning some
  media

Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV:
  Fix Released
Status in MythTV:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I'm seeing the following crash while the mythtv backend is scanning
  media:

   http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/8878

  Looks like it's (partly) due to mythbackend running without a UTF-8
  locale; apparently the backend process needs one to work.

  Adding the following to /etc/init/mythtv-backend.conf fixes the
  segfault for me:

  env LC_ALL=en_AU.UTF-8

  However, this is specific to my location, Is there something we can
  use for a generic UTF-8 -enabled option?
