I did as you described. When I now run "emerge -vpt man-pages", I get:

# emerge -vpt man-pages

These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild     U ] sys-apps/man-pages-2.78 [2.42] USE="nls" LINGUAS="-cs% -da% 
de%* -es% -fr% -it% -ja% -nl% -pl% -ro% -ru% -zh_CN%" 1,823 kB 
[ebuild  N    ]  app-i18n/man-pages-de-0.5-r1  510 kB 

# cat /etc/portage/package.env/sys-apps/man-pages
export LINGUAS=

# cat /etc/portage/bashrc 
# <news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

envFile=/etc/portage/package.env/$CATEGORY/$PN
if [[ -f $envFile-$PV ]]
then
        . "$envFile-$PV"
elif [[ -f $envFile ]]
then
        . "$envFile"
fi

It seems as if this does not work - or does it?
