I have uploaded a fix to lp:~arnegoetje/rosetta/po2xpi-arne which
attempts to fix this. The following are the instructions to that person
who is handling the language-packs now:
On the server where the language-packs are generated, the following needs to be
done:
* in langpack-o-matic is a subdirectory po2xpi, which should point to
po2xpi-arne. in This subdirectory, please use bzr pull
lp:~arnegoetje/rosetta/po2xpi-arne
* to fix this bug in the current packages, do the following:
1. in maverick/sources-base/language-pack-{bn|en|es|pt|ta|zh}-base/data/ is a
mozilla.tar.gz . Untar it in a temporary directory.
2. it will untar several subdirectories, one per language. In each
subdirectory is a chrome.manifest and a firefox-3.6-$LANGCODE.jar file.
3. in each chrome.manifest replace only the first ll_CC with ll-CC
4. tar everything up again and replace the mozilla.tar.gz in the
language-pack with the new one.
5. cd ~/langpack-o-matic; for l in bn en es pt ta zh; do cd
../maverick/sources-base/language-pack-${l}-base; dch -v 1:10.10+20100930.1 -D
maverick "Fix firefox translations (LP: #632760)"; cd ../; for p in gnome kde;
do cd language-pack-${p}-base; dch -v 1:10.10+20100930.1 -D maverick "Version
bump, no changes."; cd ../; done; cd ../sources-update/; for p in
language-pack-${l} language-pack-gnome-${l} language-pack-kde-${l}; do cd ${p};
dch -v 1:10.10+20100930.1 -D maverick "Version bump, no changes."; cd ../;
done; cd ~/langpack-o-matic; echo
"../maverick/sources-base/language-pack-${l}-base\n../maverick/sources-base/language-pack-gnome-${l}-base\n../maverick/sources-base/language-pack-kde-${l}-base\n../maverick/sources-updates/language-pack-${l}\n../maverick/sources-updates/language-pack-gnome-${l}\n../maverick/sources-updates/language-pack-kde-${l}"
>> updated-packages; done
6. upload the packages like normal.
@dpm:
This bug seems only to happen when po2xpi runs in devmode, i.e. all exported
.po files will be used and not just the officially published .xpi files. If you
don't want this, edit the 'import' file in the langpack-o-matic source code and
replace line 281 with the next higher ubuntu release number. Or, if you want to
use 'devmode' for all releases in future, replace the code with something more
appropriate. We ususally change the code in our local branch checkouts of
langpack-o-matic, commit the changes and then pull the changes on the server,
where we generate the langpacks.
You would need to re-run langpack-o-matic then and bump up the version in the
launchpad translation tarball.
If you need my help, contact me on Skype.
** Changed in: ubuntu-translations
Status: Triaged => Fix Committed

Language variants don't work in Firefox because the language codes are
separated with an underscore rather than a hyphen in chrome.manifest
