Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox

I have configured edgy to use greek (LANG=el_GR.UTF-8) locale (greek menus etc). When starting firefox (either by clicking the icon or from terminal) I get an error window and firefox does not start. The error message is (translated to english):

XML PArsing Error: Undefined entity
Location: chrome://browser/content/browser.xul
Line Number 1140, Column 9:

--------^<toolbarbutton id="go-button"

----^<menuitem id="menu_HelpPopup_reportPhishingtoolmenu"

I also attach a screenshot of the error message.

Firefox starts successfuly with no error messages when I run

$ LANG=en_US.UTF8 firefox

from terminal. I have also installed full greek and english language support from the System -> System management -> Language Support tool and fully updated the system.
