I just finished doing a reinstall of my amd64 machine (using x86 though) and upon doing a:
# emerge --update --deep --newuse world (I'd edited my use flags and done an emerge sync) I got this: # emerge --update --deep --newuse world Calculating world dependencies ...done! >>> emerge (1 of 49) dev-perl/Locale-gettext-1.05 to / >>> md5 files ;-) Locale-gettext-1.04.ebuild >>> md5 files ;-) Locale-gettext-1.01-r1.ebuild >>> md5 files ;-) Locale-gettext-1.03.ebuild >>> md5 files ;-) Locale-gettext-1.05.ebuild >>> md5 files ;-) files/digest-Locale-gettext-1.01-r1 >>> md5 files ;-) files/digest-Locale-gettext-1.03 >>> md5 files ;-) files/digest-Locale-gettext-1.04 >>> md5 files ;-) files/digest-Locale-gettext-1.05 >>> md5 src_uri ;-) gettext-1.05.tar.gz >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking gettext-1.05.tar.gz /var/tmp/portage/Locale-gettext-1.05/work >>> Source unpacked. * Using ExtUtils::MakeMaker checking for gettext... no checking for gettext in -lintl... no gettext function not found.
