That means you replied to a previous post (which was on a totally different topic, gnupg, as it happens), instead of starting a new thread. That's called hijacking a thread, and is considered a violation of netiquette, as many people's clients actually display threaded replies under the original post. If you are replying, reply on topic. If you are starting a new topic, please do it with a new post to a new thread, not a reply to an existing thread. Briefly answering your question anyway... I have it merged here, which means it must have merged just fine. According to the date on one of the package files, I merged it Oct. 24th. I'm not an i18n/l10n (internationalization/localization) expert by far, as I do only English and thus turn most of that stuff off where I can. However, if I'm not mistaken, po files are l10n related. A quick google says the .ar in your email address is Argentina, so it's relatively likely you are localized to something other than the en-us I use and that tends to be the default unlocalized version. I'd do a bugsearch on bugs.gentoo.org (don't forget to search on closed bugs too as it may have just been fixed), and if there's nothing filed on the package that looks like what you are seeing, file a bug report. In the mean time, you /might/ be able to merge it USE=-nls if you don't mind giving up the l10n stuff. That is how I have it merged and would be my guess as to what controls the po file stuff. Still, that bug report is worthwhile, as the segfault points to an issue that needs resolved. (Be glad you aren't Estonian, "et" IIRC. From a few bug reports I've read, that l10n is one of the worst, as the letters are in a different order resulting in all sorts of unanticipated stuff happening when the normal ordering assumptions prove incorrect. There's an Estonian guy that has unfortunately had to become quite familiar with bugzilla due to all the bugs he files as a result, but the devs appreciate it as it points out bugs due to invalid assumptions, that nobody else runs into.) -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
