45130 - Language Options: Esperanto [eo] missing

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 62578

(SeaMonkey :: Preferences, defect, P5)

Description

[ed]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows 98; Win 9x 4.90)
BuildID:    

In the language selection dialog, the entry for Esperanto (ISO code "eo") is 
missing. Fix should be trivial. If it's relevant, the default charset for 
esperanto is ISO Latin-3 (or UTF).

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Open preferences. Click on navigator:languages :)

Actual Results:  No entry "Esperanto [eo]".		

Expected Results:  Should be an entry "Esperanto [eo]".

[sairuh (rarely reading bugmail)]

matt/teruko, should this go over to i18n or l10n?

Comment 2

[matt]

I would kick this to the i18n people

Is the "Languages for webpages" list supposed to be exhaustive? If so, Esperanto 
isn't the only one missing. If not, when would a language qualify for the list?

Comment 4

How about at least the languages with a category at http://dmoz.org/World/? :)

Comment 5

[Asa Dotzler [:asa]]

confirming this. It's either a bug or an RFE.

Comment 6

Typing 'eo' in the "others" box will add "Esperanto [eo]" to the 'Languages for
Web Pages' list. So the language code is known to Mozilla, it's just missing
from the selection list for some reason.

Bug 40103 reports that Hebrew is also missing.

Comment 8

[Robin Lionheart]

Still not in Win32 nightly 20001012. Confirming bug.

I think the above file has the list of locals that will magically appear as 
recognized.

For my convenience, because i'm going to attach patches to the other bug, i'm 
marking a dependency. Don't blow it away to be argumentative, but when the fix 
is in you can do whatever you like (if you own the bug).

reassign to ftang

Comment 11

[Frank Tang]

I guess change
eo.accept =     false
to
eo.accept =     true
in intl/locale/src/language.properties
will make it appear in the pref.
Can some one try it and confirm it ?

Mark it as P5
