Howdy,
I did my weekly update the other day a little early. Anyway, I need to
install needrestart but a package fails to build that it depends on.
This is the short error message.

It seems to be complaining about rst2man so I thought maybe there was a
linking problem or something and reinstalling the package would help. I
reinstalled dev-python/docutils but it still fails with the same error.
I searched forums, BGO and such but no help that I could find. I also
tried a newer version of init-system-helpers in case the older version
has a flu.
On the locale setting. This is what I have set. My understanding,
LC_ALL shouldn't be set.

Anyone have a idea how to fix this? This is the new rig with merged
/usr and openrc. In case that matters. Yes, still named Gentoo-1. It
needs a better name but just not high on my list right now. ;-)

P. S. I also got a little thing to put the case on that has wheels.
It's a tight fit but the case fits on there. Just gotta be careful when
moving it. It sits on carpet and mostly wanted to get the case off the
floor for air flow. Still trying to get used to this smaller keyboard.

Well, no one else seemed to have a better idea so I tried something. I
set LC_ALL in make.conf. Guess what, it installed without error with
that set. During the install, the install guide and I'm pretty sure
someone on this list said it shouldn't be set because it can override
other settings. It seems tho, this one package wants it set for some
reason.
So, if anyone runs up on this problem, set LC_ALL in make.conf, at least
while this one package is being emerged anyway.
Hope this helps someone else one day.
Dale
:-) :-)

The error points to not liking an empty LC_ALL locale:
========================================
locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, '')
File "/usr/lib/python3.12/locale.py", line 615, in setlocale
return _setlocale(category, locale)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
locale.Error: unsupported locale setting
* ERROR: sys-apps/init-system-helpers-1.66::gentoo failed (install phase):
==================
This explains why your workaround allowed it to install.
The line 615 in locale.py the error refers to states:
615 return _setlocale(category, locale)
616
617 def resetlocale(category=LC_ALL):
618
619 """ Sets the locale for category to the default setting.
620
621 The default setting is determined by calling
622 getdefaultlocale(). category defaults to LC_ALL.
623
624 """
From a quick look I don't know, or understand, why it defaults to LC_ALL, when
further up it is looking for language and encoding, as provided by LC_CTYPE,
which is set correctly in your system. Is this the first time you install
this package?
Unless someone can offer an explanation for this, you may want to file a bug
report.

On this system yes. On my old rig, LC_ALL is set the same way. I think
when I did that install setting LC_ALL was OK.
I think I saw on package.g.o that the package is maintainer needed.
Filing a bug, if it is a bug, may not get attention for a while. Does
sound like a bug tho.
I'm going to install checkrestart later on. It's in a overlay but can't
recall which one. I'll boot the old system up later on and find out
which one it is in. I prefer checkrestart anyway. I just want the tool
to tell me what needs restarting. I like restarting them myself. ;-)
