What you have to do now is disable, an then remove, all those plugins, one by one...
Which is exactly what I asked to begin with: how does one REMOVE these "plugins" "one by one" or otherwise? :-)
As the picpaste URL shows, the darn things are disabled. But how do you REMOVE them? (apart from zapping the translations rpm)
Yes, I saw that as well when I installed the common languages rpm in my test system. By the way: it is indeed the custom in Linux to install all languages, so that any user can choose his language instantly. The difference is that normal Linux programs do it via the gettext mechanism, whereas FF does it via plugins (which I still suspect are loaded from start, that's how plugins work normally). In any way, for a program such as, say, "man", if the (say) Portuguese (say) translation was updated, you would get an update for the entire man rpm with all languages packed: this is how Linux does things. There are no rpm packages for the different languages (the biggest file is 8 KiB). The FF packed for openSUSE is no different in that respect. There are a few exceptions: large pieces of software pack languages separately, like libreoffice or KDE. I don't remember what gnome does. The difference is that in FF it is FF itself who wants the update, and in the case of man, it would be YOU, quietly.
Oh, BTW, I don't know if you noticed it or not (and I certainly didn't see it when I captured that page) but in the screen-grab you will see that the Brazilian Portuguese plugin is wanting to be updated!
