[Bug 894166] [NEW] No hyphenation in Firefox 8.0

 

Public bug reported:

The page http://www.belleslettres.eu/blog/firefox-silbentrennung.php
provides a test field for German hyphenation in Firefox 8.0
(build1-0ubuntu0.11.10.3). On my friend’s Windows PC the hyphenation
works, but it didn’t work on my Ubuntu Laptop (11.10 Oneiric)– there
simply wasn’t any hyphenated word. I tested with a new profile without
addons etc.

I have filed this bug at
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=704885 too, but there was
somebody who got hyphenation with the Mozilla build for Linux x86_64
(also my system). He reasoned the missing hyphenation is caused by the
Canonical build.

By the way: Does somebody know a testpage for English hyphenation?
