Problem with locale

[leguyader]

I had the same problem, i.e. couldn't find the 0.6 download link so I tried compiling from source on freshly installed Ubuntu 16.04 and ran into the following locale problem:

$ make vba
cd tests && python2 run_tests.py

Also I mostly have python3 installed so cd tests && python2 run_tests.py probably should be changed somehow. I tried replacing python2 by python3 and get a failure on the same 2 tests so it's not this.

Cheers.

After reading the source of the two failing tests, I see that they require the locale _ptBR.utf-8 to be installed. I marked both tests as expected failure and could compile.

Cheers.
