Mine has been set to LINGUAS="en_GB el" for many years now, but mplayer still |
| 14 |
shows up with scrambled characters on the terminal (aterm/rxvt). However, |
| 15 |
when rebuilt like: |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
LINGUAS="en_US" emerge -DV mplayer |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
no more scrambled messages! This tells me that mplayer's translations are |
| 20 |
partial to the particular LINGUAS flags and probably affected by what |
| 21 |
character sets your terminal can show. |
