@bug reporter: Missing emerge --info. A weird error message to tell us about missing PYTHON_REQ_USE="xml(+)" maybe...?
Comment on attachment 742599 [details] emerge info for a new build on a new processor dunno what went on,with the emerge.inf file as that was supposed to be the build.log

Actually I'm at a loss as to why this file is pulled into a kde install,though I see that net-libs/telepathy-logger-qt has it as an indispensable part of the install.Also I'm at a loss as to why this version fallsover,whereas on other machines it appears to compile ok (so far).

Aha, may be locale related: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1119586-start-0.html.
Yep, seem still affected. Nice digging that old thread. LANG=en_AU emerge = fails LANG=en_AU LC_CTYPE=C emerge = fails LANG=en_AU LC_CTYPE=C.utf8 emerge = works LANG=en.AU.utf8 emerge = works too of course My old guess wasn't fully educated, it actually need .utf8 and so EAPI defaults won't cut it. Since this is a python ebuild the fix is simple though, toss python_export_utf8_locale at start of src_configure.

I was able to get a compile on different machines by making the locale a *.utf-8 in my case it was en_AU. The original problem was caused by the machine being set to en_AU,which went unnoticed on the original @system install and was not till I was installing the kde framework that it showed up
Same problem fixed by switching locale from 'en_US' to 'en_US.utf8'.
