that's nonsense
[harry@srv-rhsoft:~]$ rpm -q firefox
firefox-44.0.2-3.fc23.x86_64
[harry@srv-rhsoft:~]$ rpm -q --filesbypkg firefox | grep langpack
firefox /usr/lib64/firefox/langpacks
.
not really nonsense, as there is a page at mozilla.org that has thunderbird
releases for various languages that can be installed in linux.
stating such was due to a combination of a "chemo brain" and having never
had to to change language via "pref.js", "user.js" or
"about:config", with
"user.js" or "about:config" being safest and recommend.

.
i still contend that sequence that you posted is confusing and i am still
at a loss as to how changing langpack will change sequence and wording of
how to set default email client.
