Description Maxim Mikityanskiy 2014-10-27 19:57:00 UTC

Starting with 7.4.417, vim-core does not install /usr/share/vim/vim74/lang/*/LC_MESSAGES/vim.mo files. I looked at vim-patches-7.4.714.patch and found out that new lines appeared in two places:

-    if test $have_gettext = "yes"; then
+    if test $have_gettext = "yes" -a "x$features" != "xtiny" -a "x$features" != "xsmall"; then

Vim-core is configured with --with-features=tiny, so this modification disables setting MAKEMO=yes, thus leading to missing language support.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge =app-editors/vim-7.4.273, launch vim and make sure that vim language corresponds to system locale.
2. emerge =app-editors/vim-7.4.430, launch vim and see that interface is in English
Actual Results:  
Newer versions of vim lack language support.

Expected Results:  
Vim language should correspond to system locale.

Fixed in 7.4.527.
