With the change that now the first (invalid) entry is " [fi-fi]". The
second is the correct "suomi [fi]", so still it's that removing the
first entry makes everything work as intended, but by default it falls
back incorrectly to English.

** Description changed:

  It would seem something caused an incorrect language setting in Firefox,
  potentially due to 14.04 LTS -> 16.04 LTS upgrade.
  
  Update August 2016: happens also on a clean Ubuntu 16.04.1 installation.
+ Update August 2017: also on clean 16.04.3.

- I noticed I'm getting redirected to English pages on help.ubuntu.com, even 
though that hasn't happened before like eg within the last month. I upgraded 
this machine to xenial today.

  When looking at it more (after filing this bug originally against
  documentation) in Firefox settings -> Content -> Languages, I noticed
  the top-most item was "empty" (no language name) with [fi-fi] in
  brackets. Beneath it was suomi [fi] and english options. When I removed
  the "empty" language from the list, help.ubuntu.com started behaving
  correctly again.
  
  At this point I don't have better information but leaving the bug open
  to be documented.
  
  Original report:
  All links at eg https://help.ubuntu.com/16.04/ubuntu-help/index.html.fi point 
unfortunately to English versions of the pages, like 
https://help.ubuntu.com/16.04/ubuntu-help/unity-introduction.html
  
  The correct links would have the ".fi" added to the URL, like
  https://help.ubuntu.com/16.04/ubuntu-help/unity-introduction.html.fi

** Summary changed:

- Firefox has non-functional preferred language after upgrade
+ Firefox has non-functional preferred language both after upgrade and clean 
install
