hm, works for me, please attach /var/tmp/portage/kde-i18n-3.3.2/temp/environment
Created attachment 45805 [details] environment file Here's my environment file.
I had the same problem, but then i looked at the ebuild and saw that it used a variable named LANGS, setting it to the language i wanted to install solved the problem. The ebuild should also test that LANGS is set and warn when it isn't, like it does with LINGUAS
Is this still an issue?
Not a problem anymore.
