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.
