Looks like a possible regression in portage -r15, as I am having trouble now with the linguas stuff as well. Will investigate.
works now - you may need to "touch" the ebuild file to get portage to not use the cache.
Not for me. Did emerge-webrsync, emerge -DUu world today, which installed portage -r20, then again tried "LINGUAS=de emerge kde-i18n" after touch'ing the kde-i18n ebuilds, but the results are the same, empty packages for both 3.1.4 and 3.2.0_beta2.
Got portage 2.0.50-r1 with a world update yesterday, which fixed the issue for me.
