Oh, you want to wrangle bugs too? How fast can you type "Please post |
| 7 |
your `emerge --info' output too."? :) |

We might as well skip the entire FEATURES=locale and simply detect the |
| 13 |
actual locale instead. Not that I think this would help us, but adding |
| 14 |
a FEATURE to discourage people from using that very same feature does |
| 15 |
sound like a bad design to me. |

In my opinion, what we should do instead is acknowledge the policy |
| 18 |
that's been in place all along, that is to require build logs with |
| 19 |
"universally" appreciated error messages, and reinforce that policy |
| 20 |
using technical means, instead of having asking users nicely every |
| 21 |
time for something they may not even be aware of. |
