IIUYC there are tree problems with localized portage tools: 1) for users such bug reports are hard to search 2) for devs it's hard to read localized bug reports 3) "Overtranslation" for all it's hard to understand. Right? 1,2): While generally I agree that output of build process should be in "C" locale at least the following line should be translated on all possible languages: !!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant. Everybody will benefit from translation of this message. ;) 3) Bad translation is "just another bug" that should be fixed. Nothing in reality can be done without errors. But have this stoped anybody?
