Bug Description
on a french firefox, possibly on all non english installs of firefox 43 on Ubuntu 15.10,
the Accept-Language header is set to en_US regardless of the language preferences.
It started with the upgrade to ff43, and the issue exists event when creating a new profile.
How to Reproduce :
Create a new profile on a firefox in french, go to any website, Accept-Language HTTP header does not contain "fr"
(I could reproduce the bug in a virtualized 15.10)
Workaround :
about:preferenc
Change order, click OK
Languages: choose (again) Change order back, click OK
Now the Accept-Language header is correctly set
