I've written a patch to get locale using getenv("LANG"), but pkaction command 
gave segfault with that. Some applications that does not set any locale, and 
use C locale by default may be desinged to print only ASCII strings, so I 
think getting locale using environment is not a good idea.

I've written a second patch (attached) to use setlocale to get locale, and it 
works fine. pkaction does not crash and it prints message and descriptions in 
English always, but my Qt application prints message and description in 
Turkish, as it supposed to do.

Ideas?
