I still don't understand why you would disable them? I never do that and I do not face any issues. If they are disabled Firefox wouldn't be able to use them dynamically given that Firefox on openSUSE uses the user's locale by default (if installed and enabled). Why would I expect the user to enable and switch to the one he actually can expect to be used by default anyway (as all other applications under Linux usually)?
OK, let's review the situation starting with my statement earlier to your post that the translations waste 32.6MB of space on the HDD and 6.2MB on an installation CD or DVD:
I know these langpacks taking quite some disk space but still this is not really much nowadays. For the installation CD or DVD I let the comments to Coolo. There is the option to have single packages for every locale. Nobody requested them yet and gave a compelling advantage. Feel free to open a feature request over at features.opensuse.org and convince people there.
* the translations-common rpm got installed when I used the RC1 KDE LIVE CD. This was a clean install - a total formatting of the HDD in ext4 file system;
Yeah, if you have chosen en_GB this is expected.
* even though I installed oS 12.2 RC1 (from the KDE CD Build #53) with UK English as my language - and which I also selected as my language in the LOCALE setting in System Settings as well as elsewhere including selecting the UK English Dictionary in LibreOffice et al - the Brazilian Portuguese addon in Firefox keeps wanting to be updated. All other languages are disabled in the Firefox addons but, as I stated to Carlos earlier, the BP one is showing as wanting to be updated in the pic I provided here http://picpaste.com/ff-languages-3RXT4PGr.png .
This is a bug and mostly caused by something in your profile. Probably some leftover from somewhere in the addon database or whatever. Feel free to open a bug and we can get back and forth trying to analyze what the issue is on your system.
At the moment I am using Firefox v16.0a1, which is the Nightly version directly from Mozilla and which is installed in my /home directory. 16.0a1 does NOT show any languages add-on - because, I am guessing, that it doesn't know anything about the openSUSE translations-common file. But as soon as I switch over to Firefox 13.0.1 which came with openSUSE RC1, the Languages add-on list appears (which is what shown in the picpaste pic).
Expected anyway. And FF 16 wouldn't work with the FF13 language packs anyway. Wolfgang -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
