Wow, that looks weird because l10n sign-off have been correctly done for Firefox 24.0 and l10n is not supposed to change between 24.0 and 24.1.

I'm downloading the latest build from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/all.html to confirm.

Tested on Linux 64 with this build http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/24.1.0esr/linux-x86_64/fr/ and the Data Choices panel in _not_ localized in French.

Pike, what could have been done wrong here? Sign-off have been done for 24 early on the Aurora cycle.

TTOO said 24.0esr and 25 are fine (I'll check to be sure since this is a critical issue), so I can't explain that. Is this a bug on Firefox ESR itself?

I tried with spanish version from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/all.html and there is the same issue. So I guess every fully localized languages are affected by this issue?

Looks like it, indeed. My guess is that the wrong sign-off has been used for this build, for all locales. Maybe FirefoxESR 17.0 sign-off, that could explain the huge amount of missing strings.
