Comment 8 for bug 294187

I can reproduce this in both 3.0 (in 8.04 LTS, which will still be supported on the desktop for a while) and 3.5 (in Karmic), so I have switched both to confirmed.

It should be considered however that this is probably not a bug that should be fixed in an LTS release, or even a stable one. I am pretty new to all this, so if anyone with more experience feels this means the bug should be invalid, then please make it so.

@Kangaroo:

The suggestion you make above might be a good idea, but I feel it is out of scope for this bug or even Ubuntu. The point of this bug is that for all but American users, you get an experience using Firefox in Ubuntu that is less than that of a separately downloaded Firefox, like you would also use on Windows or Mac. If you download a Latvian version of Firefox from Mozilla, you would get the Latvian search engines as well, with no choice offered. Anyone using the Ubuntu package currently does not get that and that should be improved. You might want to make your suggestion to Mozilla though, any improvements to Mozilla upstream will end up in Ubuntu eventually.
