we dont support what you do with linguas_* stuff in your USE flags (?) I'd say remove it for this build. reopen if that is not the problem
Just as additional comment: gnome-eel is sensitive to LINGUAS, but a common error is setting "en" into the values, since this entry is not valid and will break the ebuild.
