Hello,
Has anything changed recently regarding Firefox and Thunderbird
localization / global extensions ?
Since Firefox 10.0 I don't have localized menus anymore.
% ls /var/db/pkg/ | grep firefox
firefox-10.0.1,1
firefox-i18n-10.0.1
% grep 'WITH_' /var/db/ports/firefox-i18n/options
WITH_LANG_FR=true
% grep 'general.useragent.locale' ~/.mozilla/firefox/*.default/prefs.js
user_pref(general.useragent.locale, fr-FR);
But Firefox still has english menus. It has been working since Firefox
3 through Firefox 9, and the localization stopped working with Firefox
10.0. It did not come back with Firefox 10.0.1. The same thing applies
for Thunderbird 10. I also tried with the switcher extension, no luck.
Tried with a new profile, with different values (like fr only) for
general.useragent.locale, with 'firefox -UILocale fr-FR' or 'firefox
-UILocale fr'... nothing made it. I found no xpi, they seem to be
extracted.
% find /usr/local/ -name \*.xpi | wc -l
0
% ll /usr/local/lib/xpi/
total 1
drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 5 14 fév 12:37 langpack...@firefox.mozilla.org
drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 5 14 fév 12:38
langpack...@thunderbird.mozilla.org
drwxr-xr-x 7 root wheel 11 14 fév 12:17 lightn...@thunderbird.mozilla.org
drwxr-xr-x 12 root wheel 12 14 fév 12:38 symlinks
Any advice ?
I had some time to take a look at it. When extracting the content of the
xpi into the corresponding directory in /usr/local/lib/xpi/ the langpacks
are working again. In the past we created a jar file out of the locale
directory because the content differs between each langpack and it was a
very time-consuming task to update all the langpacks:
${LOCALBASE}/bin/zip -r ../$$lang.jar locale; \
Unfortunately it looks like this does no longer work…
Currently I'm looking for a solution to extract the xpi as it is and
dynamically generating the plist in the ports Makefile.

Any advice ? http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/2012-February/072850.html First, hello. Then, I already saw that, but what's the point of installing a global extension (the localization) if each user has to install the *distfile* xpi (read: not an xpi installed by the firefox-i18n port in /usr/local/lib/xpi/, but the xpi fetched by the port in /usr/ports/distfiles/) in his Firefox profile ? To resume, the www/firefox-i18n port does not work any more, at least for the fr-FR locale, at least on two different computers I own, and at least one some other computers owned by others individuals who seem to be using other locales. While it's broken, a workaround is to manually install the french localization from the mozilla website. But what can be done to repair the port or help debug this ?
