[gentoo-user] Failed to install app-misc/ca-certificate - locale problem

[Jarry]

Hi,
I just tried to update my system but emerging app-misc/ca-certificate
failed with this error:
-------------------
  File "/usr/lib64/portage/pym/portage/__init__.py", line 178, in 
_unicode_encode
     s = s.encode(encoding, errors)
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\u011f' in 
position 68: ordinal not in range(128)

one with LANG="en_GB.UTF-8" in it, but I still get the same
error. I tried en_US.UTF-8 or en_EN.UTF-8 with the same
results. I really do not understand what ca-certificates
needs to get it installed...

Having set up three Gentoo installs in the last month, and I've seen
this each time.

It's blunt, but a mixture of "emerge -e --keep-going @world",
"shutdown -r now" and "emerge --resume --keep-going" commands clears
it up.

OMG, I have to recompile the whole world to fix it???
This is definitelly not "small" bug if it costs half day
of compilation time...    :-(

I've only *ever* seen it on fresh installs. An "emerge -e @world" to
propagate CFLAGS is usually an early step; I like to do it before I
install much more than 'screen' and 'vim'.

Chances are, it's some smaller thing, like getting locale settings in
place before emerging glibc or some fs tools, but I haven't tried
tracking it down more deeply.

Have you tried locale-gen and env-update ?

I did when I saw it, and it didn't clear the error.

Bingo, this solved my problem! I did locale-gen but I forgot
to run "env-update && source /etc/profile". I always thought
log-off/log-in updates enviromnent too. It is actually true,
but for user, not system-wide...
