Description Esteve Varela Colominas 2022-11-28 20:31:36 UTC
Today's glibc install phase showed me the following message:

    /home/mid-kid/.gentoo-current/usr/sbin/locale-gen: line 168: /home/mid-kid/.gentoo-currentusr/bin/localedef: No such file or directory

I'm not sure what other details I can provide but please tell me if necessary.
Comment 1 Bart Oldeman 2023-03-21 15:56:24 UTC
This is a problem with locale-gen's use of EROOT (which changed in EAPI 7 to no longer need a trailing slash)

I fixed this in:

    Fix use of EROOT to be compatible with EAPI 7+
    
    EROOT no longer has a trailing slash, so replace it with "${EROOT%/}/"
    to avoid errors such as:
    
    /home/oldeman/eessi3/usr/sbin/locale-gen: line 168: /home/oldeman/eessi3usr/bin/localedef: No such file or directory
     * Unable to parse the output of your localedef utility.
     * File a bug about this issue and include the output of 'localedef --help'.
    
    in stage3.log when bootstrapping Gentoo Prefix.
