I did not have any /etc/env.d/02locale file, so I created
one with LANG="en_GB.UTF-8" in it, but I still get the same
error. I tried en_US.UTF-8 or en_EN.UTF-8 with the same
results. I really do not understand what ca-certificates
needs to get it installed...
Having set up three Gentoo installs in the last month, and I've seen
this each time.
It's blunt, but a mixture of "emerge -e --keep-going @world",
"shutdown -r now" and "emerge --resume --keep-going" commands clears
it up.
OMG, I have to recompile the whole world to fix it???
This is definitelly not "small" bug if it costs half day
of compilation time... :-(
