sugar-control-panel harmless traceback

[quozl]

Using sugar-control-panel command generates a harmless but emotionally disruptive traceback;

guest@guest:~$ sugar-control-panel -g timezone

Return status is zero, which indicates success. Actual output is the blank line before the shell prompt.

Perhaps this is a known issue, but FWIW the following legacy commands[*] do not appear to work in OLPC OS 13.2.9:

   sugar-control-panel -s timezone America/Port-au-Prince
   sugar-control-panel -s languages French/France

(@quozl has clarified that TZ command should not be run with sudo, as Sugar timezone is not a
system-wide configuration setting; it is local to the user.)

Please don't post off-topic noise or steal the issue? As you will have seen in my introduction on this issue, it is about the harmless traceback in the scenario where the commands do work.
