When running: # LINGUAS="en_US en" emerge -1av kdiff3 I receive the following message: * You can drop some of the translations of the interface and * documentation by setting the ${LINGUAS} variable to the * languages you want installed. * * Enabling all languages And many locales are installed: >>> /usr/kde/3.5/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/kdiff3.mo >>> /usr/kde/3.5/share/locale/da/LC_MESSAGES/kdiff3.mo >>> /usr/kde/3.5/share/locale/en_GB/LC_MESSAGES/kdiff3.mo >>> /usr/kde/3.5/share/locale/et/LC_MESSAGES/kdiff3.mo >>> /usr/kde/3.5/share/locale/it/LC_MESSAGES/kdiff3.mo ... Only recently compiled apps are in /usr/kde/3.5/share/locale while older apps are in /usr/share/locale, so I suspect something is up with the ebuild classes. These ebuilds offer LINGUAS and should be fixed, though other offending apps can also be found with: # . /etc/make.conf && egrep "/usr/share/locale/" /var/db/pkg/*/*/CONTENTS | egrep -v "${LINGUAS// /|}" | cut -f1 -d: | uniq | cut -f5,6 -d/ # . /etc/make.conf && egrep "/usr/kde/3.5/share/locale/" /var/db/pkg/*/*/CONTENTS | egrep -v "${LINGUAS// /|}" | cut -f1 -d: | uniq | cut -f5,6 -d/ # emerge --info Portage 2.1.6.11 (default/linux/amd64/2008.0/desktop, gcc-4.3.2, glibc-2.8_p20080602-r1, 2.6.27-gentoo-r7 x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: Linux-2.6.27-gentoo-r7-x86_64-AMD_Athlon-tm-_64_X2_Dual_Core_Processor_4600+-with-glibc2.2.5 Timestamp of tree: Wed, 03 Jun 2009 05:15:01 +0000 distcc 3.1 x86_64-pc-linux-gnu [enabled] ccache version 2.4 [enabled] app-shells/bash: 3.2_p39 dev-java/java-config: 2.1.7 dev-lang/python: 2.5.4-r2 dev-util/ccache: 2.4-r7 dev-util/cmake: 2.6.2-r1 sys-apps/baselayout: 2.0.0 sys-apps/openrc: 0.4.3-r2 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.6-r2 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.63 sys-devel/automake: 1.5, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10.2 sys-devel/binutils: 2.18-r3 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.1 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.26 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.27-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=athlon64 -msse3 -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/ca-certificates.conf /etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/eselect/postgresql /etc/fonts/fonts.conf /etc/gconf /etc/gentoo-release /etc/php/apache2-php5/ext-active/ /etc/php/cgi-php5/ext-active/ /etc/php/cli-php5/ext-active/ /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/sandbox.d /etc/terminfo /etc/udev/rules.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=athlon64 -msse3 -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="ccache distcc distlocks fixpackages parallel-fetch protect-owned sandbox sfperms strict unmerge-orphans userfetch" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://brahe/gentoo http://gentoo.mirrors.tds.net/gentoo" LANG="en_US.UTF-8" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1" LINGUAS="en_US en" MAKEOPTS="-j4 --silent" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_CONFIGROOT="/" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/portage/local/layman/sunrise /usr/portage/local/personal" SYNC="rsync://brahe/gentoo-portage" USE="3dnow 3dnowext X a52 aac acl acpi alsa amd64 bash-completion berkdb bluetooth branding bzip2 cairo cdr cli cracklib crypt cups dbus dri dvd dvdr dvdread emboss encode evo ffmpeg firefox flac gdbm gif gnutls gpm gtk hal iconv ieee1394 isdnlog java jpeg kde lame ldap libnotify lua mad midi mikmod mmap mmx mmxext mng mp3 mpeg mudflap multilib musepack ncurses nls nptl nptlonly ogg opengl openmp pam pcre pdf perl php png ppds pppd qt3 qt3support quicktime readline reflection samba sdl session spell spl sse sse2 sse3 ssl startup-notification svg sysfs tcpd theora threads tiff truetype unicode usb vcd vorbis x264 xinerama xml xorg xulrunner xv xvid xvmc zlib" ALSA_CARDS="hda-intel usb-audio" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty extplug file hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear meter mmap_emul mulaw multi null plug rate route share shm softvol" APACHE2_MODULES="actions alias auth_basic authn_alias authn_anon authn_dbm authn_default authn_file authz_dbm authz_default authz_groupfile authz_host authz_owner authz_user autoindex cache dav dav_fs dav_lock deflate dir disk_cache env expires ext_filter file_cache filter headers include info log_config logio mem_cache mime mime_magic negotiation rewrite setenvif speling status unique_id userdir usertrack vhost_alias" CAMERAS="canon" ELIBC="glibc" INPUT_DEVICES="evdev keyboard mouse" KERNEL="linux" LINGUAS="en_US en" USERLAND="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="nv nvidia" Unset: CPPFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, FFLAGS, INSTALL_MASK, LC_ALL, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS
