Bonjour,
On fresh install of fedora-21 (with French as default language) I wanted to install firefox and ran:
yum install firefox
Which succeeded but it is the English version which has been installed... How to install the French version using yum?
Thank you

Go to http://en.kioskea.net/faq/7263-firefox-how-to-change-language-settings and follow "Method 2" to install the appropriate language pack.
Then make sure your locale is set correctly....
[egreshko@meimei ~]$ locale LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 LC_CTYPE="fr_FR.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC="fr_FR.UTF-8" LC_TIME="fr_FR.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="fr_FR.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY="fr_FR.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="fr_FR.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="fr_FR.UTF-8" LC_NAME="fr_FR.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="fr_FR.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="fr_FR.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="fr_FR.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="fr_FR.UTF-8" LC_ALL=fr_FR.UTF-8
Sorry this isn't a "yum" solution. - -- If you can't laugh at yourself, others will gladly oblige.

The langpack xpi's seem to be present already in a regular "yum" install of firefox: [kp@localhost ~]$ rpm -ql firefox |grep langpack-fr /usr/lib64/firefox/langpacks/langpack-fr@firefox.mozilla.org.xpi

Thank you, that's the solution. I'm wondering why yum does not install the right language pack xpi while installing firefox!

and follow "Method 2" to install the appropriate language pack.
Thank you! But strangely, the link point to a "full" install of firefox (in French I guess) not to the language pack xpi.

I made the same mistake to start.... The link you want is way down the bottom....
Like this one for 64bit, version 36...
