Public bug reported:
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Czech version of Ubuntu.
2. Open pre-installed Firefox.
3. Open about:config and find "general.useragent.locale".
Actual results:
The value "cs-CZ" is non-standard (Mozilla builds have "cs" only, respectively
for all languages use two character codes unless there are more regions).
Consequently is breaks the usage of WebExtensions i18n API [1], returning value
that is not expected by extensions.
Expected results:
The "general.useragent.locale" should be the same as for builds made by Mozilla
and correspond to the Mozilla locale ("cs" in case of Czech).
Mozilla builds and languages:
https://product-details.mozilla.org/1.0/firefox_primary_builds.json
https://product-details.mozilla.org/1.0/languages.json
