Description Juan Manuel Docile 2013-07-16 00:27:24 UTC
I have firefox (www-client/firefox-22.0) compiled with LINGUAS="es_AR", but doesn't start UI in spanish.
The only way i can find is start on console with "firefox UILocale es"


/etc/portage/make.conf
LINGUAS="es es_AR"

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Start Firefox from KDE Menu.
Actual Results:  
Firefox Menu in English

Expected Results:  
Firefox Menu in Spanish

Wow I note that KDE neither is honoring LINGUAS.
Sorry maybe is KDE the problem.
Comment 2 Juan Manuel Docile 2013-07-16 05:24:01 UTC
My mistake.

/etc/env.d/02locale wasn't existed, the system variables wasn't configured

LANG="es_ES.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="C"

Now it work well.

Once again, sorry.

Firefox source builds are configured to use locale defined by user now days. We do this so multi user systems can be configured for the user without forcing it via default config for firefox.
