[Nicholas Joll <841369@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am afraid that I do not understand the explanation for why this
oddity-cum-inconvenience - and minor resource drainer? - will not be
rectified.

Why should Firefox ship with a language installed that most users will
never use? Is there not a fairly simple way around this? If there is
not, should there be?

Thanks.

Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  In addition to the 'English (GB) Language Pack', 'English (South
  Africa)' is also installed by default in Mozilla Firefox on Oneiric
  Ocelot. This is not useful to everyone and it is a repetition.
