Description Thomas Bigot 2013-06-12 15:30:45 CEST
Description of problem:
Using Firefox-beta, I expect the installation of a localization package (eg: firefox-beta-fr-22.0-0.b4.1.mga4) will switch the UI (menus, dialogs) and accept-language preferences to my language. But itâs not available. Iâve tried to change the general.useragent.locale setting in about:config to âfrâ or âfr-FRâ but no changes: still in English.

If I remember well, it used to work simply installing the localization RPM. And still works like that with firefox non-beta.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
firefox-beta-22.0-0.b4.1

How reproducible:
Always, even with a brand new profile.


Steps to Reproduce (example of French language):
1. install firefox-beta
2. install firefox-beta-fr (I guess itâs the same for all languages)
3. restart firefox-beta (if launched)
4. see itâs not in French
5. try to change general.useragent.locale to fr
6. restart
7. still not in french

Firefox-beta has no localization packages any more.
