Need to set LANG in script called via udev rule

Forum member Esmourguit is testing the French build of EasyOS 2.5.3, and found PupCamera displays in French when launched from the menu, only in English when it launches automatically -- in response to plugging in a PTP device such as camera or phone.

I recently posted about fixing those scripts that are called via udev rules:

https://bkhome.org/news/202012/how-to-run-long-time-process-on-udev-event.html

However, there was one oversight -- the LANG variable is not set when the script is called via udev. These scripts are affected:

/usr/sbin/pupautodetect-run
/usr/local/pup_event/bluetooth-add, bluetooth-remove, bluetoothhw

So I have inserted this code in the scripts:

#20201215 if called from udev rule, LANG will not be set...
eval $(grep '^LANG=.*' /etc/profile)
export LANG
