This whole discussion is going off into the absolutely wrong and useless direction.
What I have written so far has nothing to do with questioning your effort re Firefox - or anything other contribution you may be making.
If you read carefully what I have written so far contains nothing questioning your efforts.
But I think that you have taken some of the comments personally, for some reason.
Nothing is further from the truth.
Pax. Don't you, Basil, see that you're doing the same again and again?
With kids I'm very, very tolerant. Honestly I don't know how to handle you best.
For a grown up, you have the bull by the tail. It is very difficult to handle a grown up person when they are facing the facts from the wrong end. Have you read what I wrote or have you just simply blundered in into this conversation with a set agenda in mind? I installed 12.2 RC1 using the KDE LIVE CD. It was a CLEAN, fresh, install. Firefox 13.0.1 was installed by default during this installation process. Is there anything to this point that you are unable to understand or did not understand? Nothing? Good. Let's go on. When I started Firefox I found that Firefox wanted to update the Brazilian Portuguese language. Are you still with me or have I lost you at this point? No? Still with me? Good. I looked in the Add-ons - a copy of which I posted on picpaste - and found a host of languages which I did not need or use because I installed openSUSE 12.2 RC1 with the British/UK English language. At this point I posted my message which started this whole thread. Have you understood all this so far? Nothing I have said so far has befuddled/confused/disoriented you? Still with me, are you? Yes? Good, let's go on. I also use the Nightly Builds of Firefox (and Thunderbird) from mozilla.org - the the current Nightly I am using is 16.0a.1 - and when I ran this I found that there were NO additional languages showing; following this, I wrote that the FF from mozilla knows nothing about the translations-common rpm which came with RC1 and therefore all those languages did not appear. Haven't lost you at this point, and you have understood what I just wrote? Yes - No? If No then reread what I have written so far and digest it. If Yes then I will go on. Where in anything I have written previously or above have I shown or expressed any derision, disparagement, or complained about Wolfgang's efforts re Firefox? (Do you know what the words, "derision", "disparagement", "complained", I just used mean?) Please spell out chapter and verse where I have "attacked" - for want of a better expression - Wolfgang's well recognised and appreciated work on Firefox? Come on, grown-up person, show me where.
