icedove strange language behaviour
Bonjour, I have a problem with icedove: the default locale on my machine is fr_FR-utf8. On every opened window everything is in French (fichier, Edition, Affichage... etc.) except for icedove which is in English on only one user account (on other accounts, icedove is in French). Where does icedove reads its language config on a user account? I searched in .icedove directory but did not fing something relevant... On the user account echo $LANG returns fr_FR-utf8 as on every other accounts. Could someone give me a clue?

Where does icedove reads its language config on a user account? The iceweasel language package (iceweasel-l10n-fr for French) needs to be installed. Go to about:config, and check the following settings: general.useragent.locale intl.locale.matchOS intl.locale.matchOS is true by default, which means it takes the settings from the environment variables. If false, it takes the setting from general.useragent.locale. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

The correct version is provided by the security update repository (1:24.3.0-1~deb7u1) If that is ok, there is probably an old version left over in the user profile that is masking the system-wide package. Try starting with a blank profile: quit icedove if it is still running $ mv .icedove icedove.saved $ icedove It will then start with the defaults. If you get the user interface in French, the extension will need to be purged from the profile. (check here:http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_add-ons) To restore the user profile, exit icedove, and put back the original directory. $ rm -r .icedove $ cp -rp icedove.saved .icedove -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

In fact icedove read some extension from an old .mozilla/firefox directory which overrided the icedove-l10n-fr But, as all these extensions have quite cryptic names, I had to remove the whole .mozilla directory and reconfigure iceweasel! Why make simple things when you can make them difficult!
