I've just started installing a 64-bit chroot to do the emerge work for my laptop and I fell into the same error as you, Dale. Well, I haven't checked all the details but it seems similar. The odd thing is that I used a not-very-recent stage-3 that I'd already used to install from - without problems that time. So I emerged glib and glibc in the new, raw system and ran 'emerge --config sys-libs/timezone-data' again with no problem. I had copied in a /etc/locale.gen and /etc/timezone from another system first. I don't know whether I needed to emerge glib, or just glibc. I'm going to have to emerge glib again after I've emerged and set up gentoo-sources. -- Regards Peter
