Let me post this again here, maybe someone can fix this

Python on Android cannot access locales, so many scripts fail for trivial things such as formatting the date - strftime, strptime functions for example look for the current locale.
Thus, the python interpreter for android needs to be patched. If you look at this issue on the web you can find it, plus possible solutions.

etc.

Please fix this issue so that all our plugins will work again

Thanks.

Any news yet on a fix for this?

shameless bump
