Comment 22 for bug 66015

In my case, in addition to the three english language variants which have duplicates, I have en_ZA and nb_NO language files (without en-ZA or nb-NO). And these are not written out as i.e. "Norsk, bokmål".

In my opinion we have two issues here:

(1) firefox recognizes both kinds of entries (en_US AND en-US, where the latter is non-standard). This is also the title of this bug (except that in my case, I do not have duplicates for every entry).

(2) firefox does not recognize (and write out the long names of) the files with undercore separating the language and location.

I have seen this for both firefox 3.0 and 3.5 on my jaunty setup.

I guess (2) can be fixed by changing the hypthen to a underscore in toolkit/content/inlineSpellCheckUI.js in the xulrunner. However I have not been able to find the lines for (1), maybe it's deeper in the cpp code.

(This was my first time trying out debuild pbuilder, and I am not even sure how to make a patch for (2) in xulrunner. Firefox is kind of big as a start. However I was tempted by the papercuts report on the planets.)
