I had some time to take a look at it. When extracting the content of the
xpi into the corresponding directory in /usr/local/lib/xpi/ the =
langpacks
are working again. In the past we created a jar file out of the locale
directory because the content differs between each langpack and it was a
very time-consuming task to update all the langpacks:
${LOCALBASE}/bin/zip -r ../$$lang.jar locale; \
Unfortunately it looks like this does no longer work=85
Currently I'm looking for a solution to extract the xpi as it is and
dynamically generating the plist in the ports Makefile.
