When I want to use Speedtest-CLI, I get following error:

speedtest

Works without issue here. What's the output of env | grep LANG and locale and what terminal are you using?

$ speedtest

I'm using Gnome Terminal 3.26.1.
My language settings are:

$env | grep LANG

LANG=en_US.utf8
GDM_LANG=en_US.utf8

$locale

LANG=en_US.utf8
LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8
LC_NUMERIC=sl_SI.UTF-8
LC_TIME=sl_SI.UTF-8
LC_COLLATE="en_US.utf8"
LC_MONETARY=sl_SI.UTF-8
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.utf8"
LC_PAPER=sl_SI.UTF-8
LC_NAME="en_US.utf8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.utf8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.utf8"
LC_MEASUREMENT=sl_SI.UTF-8
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.utf8"
LC_ALL=

Also make sure you're fully up to date and reinstall python-setuptools

sudo eopkg up && sudo eopkg install --reinstall python-setuptools

After reinstalling python-setuptools, speedstep is working.
Thank you @sunnyflunk for your help and quick response.
