993460 - Language packs built by Mozilla are unaccesible (search and category browsing)

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(addons.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Search, defect)

Description

[Eduardo Trápani]

If you search for "esperanto language pack"[1] or "Français language pack"[2], the language pack addons do not show up, although they do exist as (Esperanto[3] and French[4]) and are being built by Mozilla.

Even if you go into the "Language support" category they are not listed. So they are actually kind of blacklisted, unavailable.

But, if you search[5][6][7] the internet, they come up right away.
