I am hit by that:

$ locale
LANG=fr_CA.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="fr_CA.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="fr_CA.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="fr_CA.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="fr_CA.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="fr_CA.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="fr_CA.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="fr_CA.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="fr_CA.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="fr_CA.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="fr_CA.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="fr_CA.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="fr_CA.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
$ aafm

    (data_string, format))
ValueError: time data 'Sun Feb 17 12:27:50 2013' does not match format '%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y'

Launching with:

$ LANG=C aafm
EXECUTE= adb shell ls --help
BusyBox ls detected
EXECUTE= adb shell ls -l -A -e --color=never /mnt/sdcard/

works.

Nice! Do you know of a way of changing the locale from inside Python? Or will be need to launch aafm with a bash script? (I'd rather keep it all inside Python)

Thanks for helping :-)
