Correct me if I'm wrong, but if a French user of Ubuntu who has also
installed the English support has a problem with firefox. Firefox logs
will be in French, no?

Although  the Ubuntu user has installed English translations, he use
French as the default language because it was that he chose when he
installed Ubuntu.
