# some applications (eg, blackbox) will not build with some languages - unset LC_ALL LANG + unset LC_ALL LC_MESSAGES LANG umask 0022
I don't like this fix/hack, why was LC_MESSAGES added, other than blackbox what breaks when LC* is set? These should really be unset in the PKGBUILDs effected and the problem reported upstream.
Is blackbox the only violator? We don't even support it anymore, and I tend to agree with you that this is a nasty hack- software should be able to build with any language.
Other opinions? I'm all for removing this whole languages unsetting thing; it can be done in the offending PKGBUILDs if necesssary.
Seems fair to me. +1 for removal that unsetting thing completely.
Agreed. Keeeeeel eeet!
