Cannot compile tigervnc-1.7.1 because of errors like this: /var/tmp/paludis/net-misc-tigervnc-1.7.1/work/tigervnc-1.7.1/java/com/tigervnc/rfb/UnicodeToKeysym.java:38: error: unmappable character for encoding ASCII new codepair(0x01a1, 0x0104), /* Aogonek ?? LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH OGONEK */ It looks as a locale setting: https://github.com/TigerVNC/tigervnc/issues/258 So I defined C.UTF-8 locale: https://lists.gt.net/gentoo/user/321555 and then: --- tigervnc-1.7.1.ebuild-pre 2017-02-23 21:46:39.020296295 +0000 +++ tigervnc-1.7.1.ebuild 2017-02-23 21:21:39.400909491 +0000 @@ -146,7 +146,7 @@ } src_compile() { - cmake-utils_src_compile + LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 cmake-utils_src_compile if use server; then # deps of the vnc module and the module itself That way it worked.
I run into the same problem, and this worked for me: # LC_ALL=en_US.utf8 nice -n 19 emerge -1 net-misc/tigervnc en_US.utf8 is defined on my system. But IMHO the solution suggested by bitozoid@gmail.com in comment 1 should be preferred.

We normally use just LC_ALL="C", could you please confirm it works with that too?
(In reply to Michael Palimaka (kensington) from comment #3) > We normally use just LC_ALL="C", could you please confirm it works with that > too? No, it doesn't work, at least if the C.UTF-8 locale does not exists. (We're talking about the solution outlined in the bug description, right!?)
I hit this issue also with: # locale LANG= LC_CTYPE="POSIX" LC_NUMERIC="POSIX" LC_TIME="POSIX" LC_COLLATE="POSIX" LC_MONETARY="POSIX" LC_MESSAGES="POSIX" LC_PAPER="POSIX" LC_NAME="POSIX" LC_ADDRESS="POSIX" LC_TELEPHONE="POSIX" LC_MEASUREMENT="POSIX" LC_IDENTIFICATION="POSIX" LC_ALL= # # grep -v "^#" /etc/locale.gen en_US ISO-8859-1 en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8 cs_CZ.UTF-8 UTF-8 cs_CZ ISO-8859-2 cs_CZ.CP1250 CP1250 # [ 34%] Building CXX object common/rfb/CMakeFiles/rfb.dir/CSecurityStack.cxx.o cd /scratch/var/tmp/portage/net-misc/tigervnc-1.7.1-r2/work/tigervnc-1.7.1/common/rfb && /usr/bin/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -DBUILD_TIMESTAMP="\"2017-04-03 11:51\"" -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DHAVE_GNUTLS -I/scratch/var/tmp/portage/net-misc/tigervnc-1.7.1-r2/work/tigervnc-1.7.1 -I/scratch/var/tmp/portage/net-misc/tigervnc-1.7.1-r2/work/tigervnc-1.7.1/common -DNDEBUG -O2 -pipe -maes -mpclmul -mpopcnt -mavx -march=native -Wall -Wformat=2 -fPIC -o CMakeFiles/rfb.dir/CSecurityStack.cxx.o -c /scratch/var/tmp/portage/net-misc/tigervnc-1.7.1-r2/work/tigervnc-1.7.1/common/rfb/CSecurityStack.cxx /scratch/var/tmp/portage/net-misc/tigervnc-1.7.1-r2/work/tigervnc-1.7.1/java/com/tigervnc/rfb/UnicodeToKeysym.java:38: error: unmappable character for encoding ASCII new codepair(0x01a1, 0x0104), /* Aogonek ??

This behavoir continues in the net-misc/tigervnc-1.8.0 ebuild (see bug 614742).
It worked with just LC_CTYPE for me. And yes tigervnc 1.8 is still affected.
