Bug 190895 – sys-apps/util-linux-2.13 - localization isn't working

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: VERIFIED FIXED

[Description Benno Schulenberg 2007-08-31 18:15:41 UTC]

After upgrading from util-linux-2.12r-r7 to util-linux-2.13, util-linux tools like mount, cfdisk and hwclock are no longer getting localized.

(When installing 2.13 I noticed the util-linux.mo files getting uninstalled, and that they had been replaced by util-linux-ng.mo files.  Renaming the latter to the first doesn't help, though.)
