This doesn't seem like a major problem. Most errors can be easily deciphered, and if they can't, the user can be asked to run "LC_MESSAGES=C emerge". This also introduces a usability problem, in that a user's preference is being overridden. Presumably the user knows that they want their system in a particular language more than we do. > 2) fix some python-related compilation breakages, like > in xen-tools-4.3.0, for example. This is just papering over the actual issue that needs to be fixed.
