i came across kde-i18n when setting up an as-most-as-possible-german-desktop-gentoo, so i thought about also having manpages (@console) and everything else what is possible in german, found & followed http://www.gentoo.org/doc/de/guide-localization.xml.
| Code: | ls /etc/env.d/
00basic 03opengl 05portage.envd 10libx11 45kdepaths-3.5 50glib2 50qtdir3 70less 99libstdc++ gcc
01hostname 05binutils 08nspr 10xkeyboard-config 45qt3 50gtk2 60gstreamer-0.8 99gentoolkit-env 99splash
02distcc 05gcc 08nss 15openmotif-2.2 50gconf 50ncurses 60prelink 99kde-env binutils |
02 is taken by distcc, now ... "touch 0xlocale"? edit it an it works? I have LINGUAS="de" in make.conf and emerged app-i18n/man-pages-de-0.4, nothing else, yet.
I've searched the forum alot... found something about nls. Do i need it in kernel, or to recompile some packages with this useflag? I hope someone has a "Howto make gentoo talk in your native language" or something like that, i'm really stuck at this point in the guide and searching in the forum is kinda confusing ("utf-8" hum okay, "i have locale=*language*" ok, how?, etc)... never cared about this until now. |

As you can see, there are multiple 01s, so just add 02locale, edit it as needed, and go with that - it'll work perfectly. The numbers are used to define the general order, not an *exact* order that things will run in.
Oh, and having the nls USE flag is a good idea (should just have to add it to USE in make.conf, and emerge -uavDN world). Other than that, I can just suggest you follow those UTF-8 guides... They're quite good, for almost any locale, in my opinion. |

ahhhh right  , man pages work now, thanks  .
About nls, if i haven't used the flag i have to reemerge packages which use it?
An example | Code: | | Would you like to merge these packages? [Yes/No] |
portage has no nls, only no de, so it'll always be english or polish for now? The guide says "gettext" programs use LINGUAS, everything else nls as long as supported so i have to look for this flags to get more native language tools when emerging?
Whats the difference. Lingua=package-language nls=kernel-implied (maybe i'm horrible wrong here but something about nls was in the kernel config)?
love the forum  |
