# Attempt to fix emerge of "po4a"
# Use: sh po4a-workaround.sh &  emerge po4a > po4a.lst 2>&1
# You will get errors until the emerge unpacks po4a and the "rm" commands execute.
# You will also get warnings from the emerge ebuild due to the removal
# of the it/pl/ca/fr/es files.

# The commands that the ebuild hangs on (loops forever) are of the form:
#   perl po4a-translate -v -f pod -M utf-8 -L iso8859-2 -m po4a-gettextize -p po/pod/pl.po -l blib/man/po4a-gettextize -a doc/addendum.pl
# where then language may be it, pl, ca, or fr; es for some reason appears to work

# This removes the offending language files from the package early during the
# package build process
for LANG in it pl ca fr es
