Title:
Firefox interface language set to LANG, ignores LANGUAGE
To manage
As regards disagreement... While I may think that a request for
recognizing LANGUAGE is a feature request, you think it's a bug. Not
much of a disagreement to mind about, I'd say. :) Let's talk about the
issue at hand instead.

This shouldn't be a duplicate as Firefox is not respecting the
environment variables properly. There is already a partial patch in the

@ Martin A.
It's true that descriptive variable names is good programming practice as a
general rule. However, here we are talking about two environment variables,
whose names are beyond the control of the Ubuntu community. When you deal with
i18n and l10n as a programmer, you simply need to
I have modified the GDM patch attached to bug 553162, and now that patch
fixes the problem with programs, e.g. Firefox, that don't recognize
$LANGUAGE. Even if the solution provided as an attachment to this bug
works well, the code in the GDM patch is more elegant IMO.
If you want to deal with
Being completely out of the programming in this case,
my 5 öre is to say that it is not really good to have two
global variables with almost same names, but slightly
different meanings, and also same but slightly different
meanings for their names. It could be a good idea to change
both the

Using LANG instead of LANGUAGE is not the default behavior of Firefox.
For some reason, Debian seems to have created the problem through a
firefox.js file with Debian specific preferences:
$ grep -B1 'matchOS' /etc/firefox/pref/firefox.js
// Use LANG environment variable to choose locale

Just adding the user_pref(intl.locale.matchOS, false); line to user.js
fixes the problem for me. Thank you for the tip.
Do we know why (and by whom) that option was set in the Debian-provided
preferences override?

#15:
Of course, it fixes the problem for me by setting the language to English,
which is the default. You still need to tell Firefox which language to use if
you want any other language.

The fix works fine for me, but are you sure that this is really a

I have absolutely no idea of the Mozilla code, but considering the very serious
and advanced discussion at the Mozilla bugtracker, I can't really believe that
the whole thing is only about a Debian config

Resetting bug to Triaged. matchOS was added so Firefox automatically
uses the language of the host system. I'll have to look at the UILocale
startup option since we do have a wrapper script in place already.

Indeed. And setting intl.locale.matchOS is intentional (not a bug).
Without it, Firefox gets the language from the general.useragent.locale
preference rather than the users environment. I've got no idea how that
could work reliably on Ubuntu, seeing as we localize that preference

You are welcome. I don't know why or by whom.
@Felix Dreissig, comment #17
No, I'm not sure. What I know about the background is included in the bug I
filed with Debian (see comment #22), and that firefox.js file indicates that
the problem is Debian-specific IMO.
As I wrote, Firefox doesn't come from Debian, therefore, Debian isn't
upstream in this case.
