Re: [Bug-gnuzilla] Default Search Engine

[Narcis Garcia]

Same issue with Searx.

- Opened a browser with catalan [ca] content language setting, search
for "Lleida" -> English results.
- Opened a browser with spanish [es] content language setting, search
for "Madrid" -> English results.

Not useful for people outside of english spoken countries.
