Application linked with xerces-c library crashes with message Could not open catalog: /usr/share/xerces-c/msg/XercesMessages_en_US.utf8.cat or /usr/share/xerces-c/msg/XercesMessages_en_US.cat Cannot load message domain Reason: The catalog file is installed in /usr/msg/ but the path is set to XERCESC_NLS_HOME="/usr/share/xerces-c/msg" in /etc/env.d/50xerces-c. Workaround: Either change the XERCESC_NLS_HOME or move the catalog file to expected location. Reproducible: Always
The ebuild's files/ directory has a patch to change the install path of XercesMessages_en_US.utf8.cat from /usr/msg to /usr/share/xerces-c/msg/, but the ebuild does not have a PATCHES array. Adding PATCHES=( "${FILESDIR}"/xerces-c-3.2.2-fix-XERCESC-2163.patch ) to the ebuild will fix said issue.
