KDE-dev 2016-08-04: Selected IT language from boot. After boot, double-clicked on the icon on the desktop, the anconda screen was black for a long time, then i minimized-maximixed the windows, and the anaconda bug report window showed up with this content: https://pastebin.sabayon.org/pastie/17838, couldn't install so far (in a virtualbox instance). Locales was there, tried also to regenerate them on-place but didn't worked. Screen: https://pastebin.sabayon.org/pastie/17839
