Public bug reported:

Kubuntu 8.04 up-to-date
Firefox 3

Firefox's search box goes to google.com instead of the local google. The
firefox installation scripts should:

1) Use the country setting to switch the google search to local goolge
(e.g.: google.be)

2) Very Important: Use the language settings to use the correct language
for google, in countries where there are more than 1 official language
(eg: google.be/fr)

Next, I tried to change the google search using "administer search
modules" (translated from french I'm not sure of the english words) from
the searchbar drop-down menu, editing the google entry (which is
empty... strange) and typing "http://www.google.be/search?hl=fr&q" but
it does not work!  How can I change it?  I even tried to change the
keywork.URL in about:settings, but...
