Emerging openoffice with the mis-spelled LANGUAGE, you would found it has been compiled with US English after many hours passed. So I suggest checking LANGUAGE value strictly instead of falling back to default value. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.LANGUAGE="JAPAN" emerge openoffice 2.(after may hours) 3.LANGUAGE="JAPN" emerge openoffice # with sigh...
Created attachment 19528 [details, diff] patch for strictly checking the LANGUAGE value.
Ok, I have integrated it in my copy of the ebuild. It will be integrated in the next commit of the ebuild (I hope to be able to solve the xargs problems soon)
