Ok I did some more experimenting and I can explain what fixes it but I dont know enough about mozilla to guess why I did rm -rf .mozilla/profilepath/chrome which fixed the window spewing crap (102231) LANG=C mozilla now works, mozilla now fails LANG=C mozilla go to www.meddal.org.uk install cy language pack and it now works Seems something is broken in the fallbacks for unknown locales ? Oddly however LANG=[various other things] mozilla seems ok either way Yeah, I think that Mozilla doesn't handle fallback locales very well at all. Our locale system is so screwed up. *sigh* Historical bug, closing |
Description of problem: Mozilla is broken in some locales How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set default environment to Welsh (cy_GB.UTF-8) 2. Run mozilla for a new user 3. Stop mozilla entirely, restart it 4. LANG=C mozilla Actual results: #3 fails but should work #4 works demonstrating its a locale problem Expected results: Working mozilla (no extras have been added to this mozilla, the .mozilla is fresh too)
