emerge app-shells/bash-4.2_p20 fails with et_EE.UTF-8 Fix: $ LANG= $ emerege app-shells/bash and it compiles fine.
The culprit causing this problem is following line in the ebuild: sed -ri -e 's:\$[(](RL|HIST)_LIBSRC[)]/[a-z]*.h::g' Makefile.in || die Easy fix would be to prepend 'LC_ALL=C' to that.
should be all set now in the tree; thanks for the report! Commit message: Use :alpha: rather than a-z in sed http://sources.gentoo.org/app-shells/bash/bash-4.2_p20.ebuild?r1=1.8&r2=1.9 http://sources.gentoo.org/app-shells/bash/bash-4.2_p24.ebuild?r1=1.2&r2=1.3
