Hello, It looks like A Xerces-c problem. What version of Xerces-c are you using and which use flags does Xerces-c use ? Roelof

So I need to have more info but still it looks like a Xerces-c problem. Can one of the developers make this a Xerces-c big instead of a freecad bug ? Roelof

Just dropping a note for everyone that hits this bug that I had to run root@mycomp > env-update user@mycomp > source /etc/profile to get it working.
I had the same problem. It was been resolved only by enabling USE=icu for Xerces-c.
comment 10 is confirmed...icu useflag to xerces-c seems to be required by FreeCAD.
This confirms the confirm on comment 11 that confirms the comment on 10, for a complete trilogy of validation. lol I had the exact same issues, outcome, and taking the action laid out solved the problem for me as well. I'm sure this will be common, as I had this issue on 3 different machines that I installed freecad onto. Thank you all for the valuable information given in this and those involved.
I ran into this too ; as per comment #10 it seems that USE="icu" on xerces-c is required on default installations. I checked through my whole tree and as far as I can tell, this issue is not caused by a USE="icu" mismatch between xerces-c and any other package in the dependency tree of freecad (or xerces-c). Given that, I expect freecad's real dependency is xerces-c[icu] , and so I'm updating the ebuild appropriately.
