--- Comment #10 from Tijl Coosemans <tijl@FreeBSD.org> ---
(In reply to Jan Beich from comment #8)
> Tijl, why bug 215882 limits USE_LOCALE to configure and build phases? Thi=
s port needs to set UTF-8 locale during extract phase.

The logic behind that was that there's ports tree code and upstream code.  =
That
commit forces the C locale for the ports tree.  USE_LOCALE can then be used=
 to
set a different locale for the upstream code.

I agree it would make sense to extract files using the upstream locale, but=
 I
find it strange that tar worries about encoding.  It should just treat file
names as binary data like the file system does.  How else can it handle pac=
king
and extracting /home with users using different locales?

The error with static tar is probably because it cannot load modules from
/usr/lib/i18n.
