Unfortunately this is a known problem not yet solved

Thank you for reporting anyway, and welcome :)

  For the future, 

1) practise searching exiting reports https://bugs.mageia.org/query.cgi

2) make commands report in English: prepend them with LC_ALL=C, example

  $ LC_ALL=C sudo urpme --auto-orphans

Some programs need LANGUAGE=C instead (or understand both)
