[Bug 333799] Re: Default dictionary is unspecified (was Firefox uses en-GB by default instead of en-US)

 

This was not fixed, the solution is to uninstall hunspell and myspell
and firefox-locale-en https://bugs.launchpad.net/language-
selector/+bug/1026869 is a bug I filed. Uninstalling firefox-locale-en
is necessary, otherwise en_US (which is incorrect, and duplicate) is
sometimes chosen as the default spellchecker.

  Default dictionary is unspecified (was Firefox uses en-GB by default
  instead of en-US)

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: mozilla-firefox

  It seems that packaged versions of Firefox for Ubuntu are using
  British English language packs rather than American English language
  packs.

  As an American, I feel deeply offended by the British spellings that
  are constantly being recommended by the menus and spell check.

  (Firefox 3.0, Ubuntu Jaunty)
