[Bug 550222] Re: Firefox interface language set to LANG, ignores LANGUAGE

[Gunnar Hjalmarsson]

@Jeroen Hoek, comment #15
You are welcome. I don't know why or by whom.

@Felix Dreissig, comment #17
No, I'm not sure. What I know about the background is included in the bug I filed with Debian (see comment #22), and that firefox.js file indicates that the problem is Debian-specific IMO.

@Micah Gersten, comment #18
The Ubuntu l10n / i18n model, not least the language-selector package, seems to assume that LANGUAGE is for language while LANG is for other locale stuff. Also, please see my comment #21 in bug 553162.

As regards the wrapper, I suppose there is a more suitable place for
that code. Great if you check it out!

@Nicolò Chieffo, comment #19
Well, no. English is always there as a fall back language, but AFAIK Ubuntu cannot currently handle a non-English fall back language.

@Chris Coulson, comment #20 and comment #21
I hesitated as regard the patch mark... Sorry! Pls bear with a newbie in this community.

@Micah Gersten, comment #23
I disapprove of your action. I identified a possible issue, and tried to communicate it with "upstream". Obviously we got some configuration stuff from Debian, and Debian wants the applicable package name just like that.

@Chris Coulson, comment #24
Also intentional code may become a bug later on, if it proves to cause unexpected problems, right?

> I've got no idea...
I for one have a very clear idea. How about testing the solutions I shared here and in bug 553162? Only after that I think it will be meaningful to talk about pros and cons.
