I've run systems without nls in the past and it works well, after all OUR English is a native language ;-) Seriously though, nls enables support for different character sets AFAIR. I've been running with en-GB for years and haven't had the problems the OP reported. For example, the shadow ebuild only includes the English man page. As a kludge, you can use INSTALL_MASK to block installation of other languages, but finding the cause of this behaviour would be preferable. -- Neil Bothwick Voting Democrat or Republican is like choosing a cabin in the Titanic.
