Description of problem: If in the US, installing Thunderbird from the repos generates a requirement of the UK English language pack, when the US English language pack would be more appropriate. I realize that the US language pack didn't exist for older versions of Thunderbird, but it does now, and ought to be the one required for US residents. Of course, there is nothing to stop users from installing the US language pack in addition to the UK one, or from deselecting the UK pack once the US pack is selected if that is desired. But, the process isn't as transparent as it should be, and will no doubt confuse and annoy some users. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Thunderbird 45 ESR and after How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Thunderbird while residing in the US. 2. 3.
How did you install? When using urpmi or dnf, you should be able to select the preferred language pack. When using rpmdrake, you'll hit bug 18810: Both thunderbird-en_GB and thunderbird-en_US match locales-en, and thunderbird-en_GB comes before thunderbird-en_US in the alphabet, so that's the one that drakrpm selects.

I was using rpmdrake. So I guess that makes this a duplicate of Bug 18810. Marking it as such. I searched before reporting, but apparently not with the correct keywords. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 18810 ***
