First update your locale as per above page, then run 'env-update && source /etc/profile', followed by 'localegen'. Then if you have also setup additional localisations in L10N, you need to run emerge with option --newuse, or --changeduse to take account per package or global changes in the L10N USE settings. --nextPart1840893.usQuhbGJ8B Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
