Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox-3.0
I have Ubuntu 8.04.1 (Hardy Heron) 32-bit, with Spanish interface.
Today, I update my Mozilla Firefox browser from 3.0.1 to 3.0.3 (3.0.3+
After the update, the browser indicates that the Spanish language-packs (ES-ES and ES-AR) are not compatible (see image attached).
So now, I have Firefox mainly in English, with a few phrases in Spanish.

Hola Ricardo!
Same here with italian version of Firefox!
I upgraded from 3.0.1 to 3.0.3 and the former (3.0.1) Firefox (it) were recognized as "not compatible" and disabled by Firefox itself.
You can fix the interface language problem by downloading and installing the "correct" (3.0.3 compatibile) XPI language file directly from Firefox website (I did so and got again "full Italian interface" in my Firefox..the XPI files are "universal" and are suitable for any version of Firefox...Winzozz, Linux, MacOs, etc etc), but THE REAL "PROBLEM" is that the DISABLED (old) language packs (3.0.1) are always displayed in "gray" (see the attached screenshot) and you'll be UNABLE TO REMOVE THEM.
SO....HOW TO PURGE THOSE OLD LANGUAGE COMPONENTS FROM 3.0.1?
Saludos!
