Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
[root@localhost root]# rpm -q redhat-config-printer
redhat-config-printer-0.6.47.3.19-1

How reproducible:
Only try to start it.
  
Expected results:
Properly work.

Additional info:
I propose to write 'LC_MESSAGES=C /usr/sbin/alternatives ...' into 
/usr/share/printconf/util/cups_import.py as quick fix.

The alternatives call are discovered at three files:

- queueTree.py
- cups_import.py
