[gentoo-user] Problems with help2man and Perl

[Andrew Lowe]

Hi all,
	I've having a bit of a problem with doing an update world. When I do an 
"emerge -NuD world" things chug along a bit then the build for help2man 
fails, having a problem with "Locale::gettext". A Google search mentions 
using perl-cleaner. I run perl-cleaner and it results in a whole lot of 
stuff being rebuilt, including Perl. I then run the emerge again and for 
some reason it wants to rebuild perl again, a different version to what 
perl-cleaner rebuilt. The emerge progresses past building perl , gets 
back to help2man and fails again.

	Does anyone have any ideas as to what might be going wrong here? I have 
a feeling I should be unmerging a lot of stuff then remerging it.

	Any thoughts greatly appreciated,

		Andrew

p.s. Sorry about the English, I've had a lot of chocolate and Tokay :)
