[Bug 854703] [NEW] Searchbar uses "wrong" (not expected) google domain

 

Public bug reported:

Hi!

I live in Latvia, my mother tongue is Russian, so the Ubuntu language is Russian and timezone Riga (Latvia). 
When I search something through the searchbar google.com is used - but I expect google.lv. The google language is correctly Russian but the country domain is not detected, so I consider it as a bug.

As a workaraung I've installed addon from http://mycroft.mozdev.org
/google-search-plugins.html

Ubuntu 11.04, Firefox 6.0.2
