No, this file still contains |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
LANG="en_GB.utf8" |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
However, if I change that line to |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
LANG="en_GB.UTF-8" |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
then I do get a new locale when running |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
# env-update |
| 24 |
>>> Regenerating /etc/ld.so.cache... |
| 25 |
# eselect locale list |
| 26 |
Available targets for the LANG variable: |
| 27 |
[1] C |
| 28 |
[2] C.utf8 |
| 29 |
[3] POSIX |
| 30 |
[4] en_GB.utf8 |
| 31 |
[5] en_GB.UTF-8 * |
| 32 |
[ ] (free form) |
| 33 |

|
| 35 |
but afterwards re-building package "texlive-basic" again fails until I |
| 36 |
undo this change by executing |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
# eselect locale set 4 |
| 39 |
# env-update |
| 40 |
>>> Regenerating /etc/ld.so.cache... |
| 41 |
# eselect locale list |
| 42 |
Available targets for the LANG variable: |
| 43 |
[1] C |
| 44 |
[2] C.utf8 |
| 45 |
[3] POSIX |
| 46 |
[4] en_GB.utf8 * |
| 47 |
[ ] (free form) |
| 48 |
# grep -v '^#' /etc/env.d/02locale |
| 49 |
LANG="en_GB.utf8" |
| 50 |
# |
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
So "en_GB.utf8" in "02locale" but "export LANG=en_GB.UTF-8" in my Shell |
| 53 |
script doing the Gentoo updates is the only working combination I've yet |
| 54 |
found. Explanations heartily welcome :-/ |
| 55 |

Sincerely, |
