System locale charset is ANSI_X3.4-1968 Your system's locale charset (i.e. the charset used to encode filenames) is set to ANSI_X3.4-1968. It is highly unlikely that this has been done intentionally. Most likely the locale is not set at all. An invalid setting will result in problems when creating data projects. Solution: To properly set the locale charset make sure the LC_* environment variables are set. Normally the distribution setup tools take care of this.
As far as I can tell it doesn't have any negative impact. It looks like it wants the LC_* environment vars set - which maybe should be set by baselayout or something. I imagine it is just a non-ideality unless you are using foreign character sets (in which case you likely know more about locales than I do!). Is anybody around here knowledgeable about locales/etc?
I noticed on the notes after the upgrade that k3bsetup isn't included in the ebuild now. So, my question is, how do I fix this, or is it even a problem?
I believe the message indicated that it wasn't included because it was no-longer needed. So you shouldn't need to do anything. This utility checks executable/device permissions and adjusts them so that users can burn discs. Apparently gentoo's permissions now work out-of-the-box. Oh - one thing I did notice about the new k3b is that you might want to turn on auto-blanking of rewritable media. While testing this package I was able to get it to create a DVD with leftover directory entries from the previous image (which didn't work - the directory entries were there but the files were not - ls showed them in flashing red). -- gentoo-amd64@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
