Description Kristian Niemi 2011-01-24 19:01:47 UTC
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
