As looks like 02locale and localeconf have the same format (simply setting some LC_* related variables), why ebuild doesn't simply copy it if existing instead of telling people to manually do that? Thanks Reproducible: Always
Sounds reasonable to me. The only danger would be if someone has manually altered /etc/env.d/02locale.

I think that the kind of stuff that can be put in /etc/env.d/02locale is the same recognized by systemd and, then, if somebody was having strange things there, they will probably don't see a regression as that wasn't neither working properly with openrc
Err, my 02locale doesn't fit :). > Note that LC_ALL may not be configured in this file. For > details about the meaning and semantics of these settings, refer to locale(7).
In that case, I think the best think to do is to provide a file with comments telling people what kind of variables should they try to put there (if I don't misremember, some people even tried to separate langs with "," causing other problems)
Supposedly fixed through #465468.
