Description Matthias Peick 2005-04-18 10:36:34 UTC
* Sorry, but openoffice does not support the eo LINGUA
 * Installing OpenOffice.org for US English (default) environment.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. LINGUAS="de en eo es fr it pt ca zh_CN zh_TW ja ko"
2. emerge openoffice
3. Wait for the message about LANGUAGE.

Actual Results:  
I get an englisch version. 

Expected Results:  
I should get an german version - the first value in LINGUAS. 

Workaround: 
LINGUAS=de emerge openoffice

Works for me if I set the exact same LINGUAS line in /etc/make.conf (where it belongs), so I suspect this is a problem with your setup. Could it be that you have another LINGUAS line set somewhere else (like in /etc/make.conf) which overrides this? I just ask because doing step 1 won't do anything (it should be 'export LINGUAS="de en eo es fr it pt ca zh_CN zh_TW ja ko"' if you want it to do anything useful), and so you shouldn't even get the warning about the non-supported eo-language.
Comment 2 Matthias Peick 2005-04-21 09:02:56 UTC
After you had wrote your notice I commented out $LINGUAS in make.conf and called emerge: emerge chose the english version.

Then I removed the comment sign and started again: surprise! Now it chose the german version - I don't understand it. Sorry for it but I reproduced the error before I wrote the bug message.

But there's really a bug in the ebuild. Not depending from the manner I call emerge with the language emerge tells its choice - german - and compiles. But always I get an english oocalc. The other programs are german.

Also works for me, seems to be a problem with your local setup, closing
