I checked that and you're right when firefox-i18n-xx gets installed after firefox has been used before. However, when installing firefox and firefox-i18n-xx first and then starting firefox for the first time, I don't see a reminder to enable language add-ons. (I suppose it doesn't consider this situation a newly added language) It's not a terrible big deal, but in this case I think a reminder in the MESSAGE file is useful. (it feels like the MESSAGE file is telling only half the story in this situation) I reworded my initial patch a bit to avoid mentioning menu items in a specific language: Index: pkg/MESSAGE =================================================================== RCS file: /cvs/ports/www/firefox-i18n/pkg/MESSAGE,v retrieving revision 1.1.1.1 diff -u -r1.1.1.1 MESSAGE --- pkg/MESSAGE 25 Jun 2006 21:25:44 -0000 1.1.1.1 +++ pkg/MESSAGE 28 Jun 2012 08:34:51 -0000 @@ -1,3 +1,4 @@ To configure Firefox for your language, type "about:config" in the URL bar and edit "general.useragent.locale" (e.g. fr-FR ; default is en-US), +check that your language is available and enabled in the language add-ons, then restart Firefox. >> Index: pkg/MESSAGE >> =================================================================== >> RCS file: /cvs/ports/www/firefox-i18n/pkg/MESSAGE,v >> retrieving revision 1.1.1.1 >> diff -u -r1.1.1.1 MESSAGE >> --- pkg/MESSAGE 25 Jun 2006 21:25:44 -0000 1.1.1.1 >> +++ pkg/MESSAGE 27 Jun 2012 12:21:16 -0000 >> @@ -1,3 +1,4 @@ >> To configure Firefox for your language, type "about:config" in the URL >> bar and edit "general.useragent.locale" (e.g. fr-FR ; default is en-US), >> +enable your language in "Tools -> Add-ons -> Languages", >> then restart Firefox. >>
