Similar for German. Many German users (including me for the most
cases) use locale. My wife asked me: Has yoour stupid Linux no
German browser? It´s so easy at work and here I have to leran English.
(So, I builded a mozilla-locale-de-at package, see #110513.)
Moreover I try to catch my son with German fortunes. By the way
Debian-Junior heavily needs locale for all non-English speaking
childs.
Kind regards
Andreas.
