I've not done anything yet. Here is what was in make.conf when I posted earlier:

lightning ~ # cat /etc/make.conf | grep LINGUAS
LINGUAS="en"
lightning ~ #

However when I look at the options in emerge I don't see en or en_US as options:

lightning ~ # emerge -pv mozilla-firefox

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

Currently my /etc/locale.gen file has this:

lightning ~ # cat /etc/locale.gen
en_US ISO-8859-1
en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8
lightning ~ #

What do you want me to add to make.conf???

I'm happy to make the changes. Best to have things set right.

I will deal with the Flash stuff after I make sure I understand your
instructions on this part. en_US and en_GB? Added now but waiting for
some feedback before I start rebuilding.

Thanks,
Mark
