Firefox unexpected urlbar search engine change after localisation

Post#1 by SaLMoN » 14 Apr 2020, 08:25

Hi,
I'm trying to customize Porteus Kiosk 5.0 ISO. Change of firefox search engine without language pack works fine (via search_engine config option), but when language pack is loaded, it automatically changes to another (default? first on the list?) - in my case (PL) to Allegro. It looks like the engine switches over a moment after the browser is loaded (I can see the desired search engine in the bar for a second). I tried to hardcode values at prefs.js (user_pref browser.urlbar.placeholderName) - no results. Any another way to achieve great success?:P
