This happens because portage no longer considers environment variables for USE_EXPAND stuff, it seems. You can stick your LINGUAS setting in /etc/make.conf, and portage will handle it right, but what you're doing now probably should work too. $ grep LINGUAS /etc/make.conf LINGUAS = "en_GB en" $ portageq envvar LINGUAS USE en_GB en x86 3dnow 3dnowext X alsa bindist cairo cdparanoia cjk cups debugger dri elibc_glibc ftp gcc-libffi gif gpgme gtk iconv idn immqt input_devices_evdev input_devices_keyboard input_devices_mouse ipv6 ithreads jpeg kdeenablefinal kdehiddenvisibility kernel_linux linguas_en linguas_en_GB lynxkeymap mbox mmx mmxext mozdevelop mudflap ncurses nethack nls no-old-linux nocxx nptl nptlonly offensive ogg opengl pango paste64 pcre pdf perl png ppds qt3 readline rtc ssl svg test theora truetype unicode userland_GNU video_cards_radeon vim-pager vorbis win32codecs xim xine xorg $ export LINGUAS="en nl" $ portageq envvar LINGUAS USE en nl x86 3dnow 3dnowext X alsa bindist cairo cdparanoia cjk cups debugger dri elibc_glibc ftp gcc-libffi gif gpgme gtk iconv idn immqt input_devices_evdev input_devices_keyboard input_devices_mouse ipv6 ithreads jpeg kdeenablefinal kdehiddenvisibility kernel_linux linguas_en linguas_en_GB lynxkeymap mbox mmx mmxext mozdevelop mudflap ncurses nethack nls no-old-linux nocxx nptl nptlonly offensive ogg opengl pango paste64 pcre pdf perl png ppds qt3 readline rtc ssl svg test theora truetype unicode userland_GNU video_cards_radeon vim-pager vorbis win32codecs xim xine xorg (Note the linguas_en_GB instead of linguas_nl) Possible unintended side effect of the fix for bug #142125 ?
The new portage changes USE_EXPAND behaviour for profile-set variables, too. INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse" in /etc/make.conf, previously completely overriding the profile-set INPUT_DEVICES (as expected and intended), now doesn't prevent input_devices_evdev from being set in USE. It's now necessary to specify INPUT_DEVICES="-evdev" to get rid of that. I'm commenting here because it seems like a different manifestation of the same bug, but if you want I can open a new bug for this.
This is fixed in svn r4175.
It's much better, thanks.

That's interesting. I'm going to try regenerating the USE_EXPAND variables based on the corresponding flags (and preserve the order for things like firefox that use the order of LINGUAS values). Hopefully it won't be too messy and will provide consistency all around.
Actually, LINGUAS=nl in the environment should kill all the other linguas_* flags, so I'll try to account for that as well.
With svn r4178 it should now account for everything correctly. After the USE flag calculation, all of the USE_EXPAND environment variables are regenerated so that they are consistent with the flags in USE.
This has been released in 2.1.1_pre4-r4.
I just encountered the problem when using binary packages. I built kde-i18n-3.5.5.tbz2 on another system with exactly the same make.conf & co but on the second system portage didn't want to install kde-i18n because of the missing LINGUAS-var. I also exported it AND put it in front of the "emerge-call" - portageq and export all show it correctly - but that didn't help. I now solved this by emerging kde-i18n from the sources on both systems.
