I agree that the news item was confusing. The guide it linked to wasn't much better either. In the end, I just fiddled with the setting until I found a setting that didn't change what I already have, in other words, I got a clean emerge -uvaDN world. My first couple runs wanted to remove things and I knew the setting wasn't right yet. After it was all done, this is what I ended up with: LINGUAS="en_US en" I left the LANG setting as is for the moment. Hope that helps. Dale :-) :-)
