When LANGUAGE is set in make.conf the install phase of calibre fails. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set LANGUAGE="46" in /etc/make.conf 2. emerge =app-text/calibre-0.7.42 Actual Results: Doesn't get emerged; fails at install phase. Expected Results: Package installed successfully. See emerge output at http://pastie.org/1493546 Also forum thread http://bit.ly/f9Hcn2 Seems it at least fails with LANGUAGE set to 46 and 48. I can confirm it does build with LANGUAGE set to "". ('LANGUAGE="" emerge calibre' installed the package successfully.) Don't think LANGUAGE is a widely used variable, but at least it used to be of importance to the openoffice package a while ago. Unsure if that's the case anymore.

Ironically, with LANGUAGE="" calibre still is installed with a plethora of languages to choose between. Including Swedish (46).

Thanks, the ebuild is fixed to do this now: export -n LANGUAGE
