Localizations (and documentation) should be categorized under the app. As the reporter points out, he missed the the localizations when upgrading Firefox because the app is under Applications/Internet and the localizations are under Desktop/Localizations.

So which packages would you under any of the */Localizations
classifications?
GNOME/Localizations would get localizations specific to the desktop itself but not applications that run on the desktop, e.g. Thunderbird and OpenOffice. Application localizations should go with the app. The localizations are usually <app name>... so they are easily noticed by the user when they see the app.

System/Localization gets the OS language support, which seems in order.

I think that covers */Localizations
