Description of problem: Creating a new profil result in a english interface. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.0-2.fc7 (run under FC6) How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. firefox -profilemanager 2. create a new profil 3. launch firefox Actual results: Interface in english Expected results: Interface in current locale Additional info: anout:config reports "intl.locale.matchOS = false" It seems greprefs/all-redhat.js not used anymore Changing the value in greprefs/all.js is a working workaround. Changing the general.useragent.locale for the user is another (but poor) workaround. Regards
Chris, does this also affect 1.5.0.x in FC6 / RHEL5 ?
No, those are fine...

Even an old profile that used to be localized is in english now in firefox
I wonder if this is related to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=364599 ? All I had to do was to change "general.useragent.locale" to my locale (which is "de-DE").

might this be due to the changes in /usr/bin/firefox? adding SHORTMOZLOCALE (as in fc6) and modifying (correcting) the langpack path when setting MOZLOCALE brings up localized firefox ui here.
Hm, I thought I transfered those changes over but apparently not. Thanks for the investigation. I'll add that to the next package.

Hm, for firefox 2.0.0.1-5.fc? i see that these changes don't take effect as variable $MOZ_EXTENSIONS_DIR does not determine. --- # check system locale MOZARGS= # Try without a local variant first, then with a local variant # So that pt-BR doesn't try to use pt for example SHORTMOZLOCALE=`echo $LANG | sed "s|_\([^.]*\).*||g"` [ -f $MOZ_EXTENSIONS_DIR/langpack-${SHORTMOZLOCALE}@firefox.mozilla.org/chrome/$SHORTMOZLOCALE.jar ] && MOZARGS="-UILocale $SHORTMOZLOCALE" MOZLOCALE=`echo $LANG | sed "s|_\([^.]*\).*|-\1|g"` [ -f $MOZ_EXTENSIONS_DIR/langpack-${MOZLOCALE}@firefox.mozilla.org/chrome/$MOZLOCALE.jar ] && MOZARGS="-UILocale $MOZLOCALE" ---

Created attachment 149790 [details] use proper language pack by default if available (In reply to comment #11) > Confirmed, still in english. The patch from Bug 228064 would have worked ;-) Updated patch against cvs. Please apply.
This should have been fixed a few RPMs ago.
