I'm not 100% sure this is a bug or not but I have the following scenario: - browser running en-US locale - extension which only provide da-DK locale I use a clean install and a clean profile so I dont have any old locale entries etc around. my XPI install.js script registers the da-DK locale but when I start the browser I'm getting an XML XUL error which complains about not being able to load stuff from the locale. if I type the chrome URL to the DTD file I'm getting a not found error. What should happen if a extension only provide and register da-DK locale while the browser runs in en-US locale? tried both mozilla latest nighly and firebird latest nightly
I think the best solution is to install the Danish locale for Mozilla resp. Firebird and switch language by Edit-->Preferences-->Appearance-->Languages/Content or create a new profile for Danish. But I think it would suffice to delete the chrome.rdf and xul.mfl (Linux: xul.mfasl), both in the profile folder, and restart Mozilla resp. Firebird. BTW, what extension is the question? Could you make the extension available?

Bug 258725 and bug 259750 have been fixed now. Does this bug still appear ?
Not sure if this is fixed, but the Danish locale is "da" and not "da-DK" anymore.
