Bugzilla Bug 150279

When installing Blender 2.42a, there are no scripts. The scripts should usually
be installed in /usr/lib/blender/scripts, but there is nothing. These are all
the files installed:

same problem here with blender 2.42a.

Missing import/export 3ds functionality due to no installation of plugins..

I'm missing the export UV face layout functionality, which prevents me to
continue my work. This quite a critical bug, in my opinion at least.

try configuring your paths...

scriptpath is setup properly. Look at my first post, the scripts are not
installed.

 /usr/share/blender/scripts contains the scripts here, 

[ebuild   R   ] media-gfx/blender-2.42a  USE="ffmpeg iconv jpeg nls openal png
sdl -blender-game -openexr"

It was the nls useflag. I guess NLS has to be non-optional then, for Blender.

I still have to make a symlink in ~/.blender BTW:

scripts -> /usr/share/blender/scripts/

or config the python script path to point to that path, but I guess this is
Blender's fault.

I fixed that part, thanks for the report.
