I found the italian package and I installed it as root, but firefox 
doesn't ask me if I want a global installation :-( 
that means that every user must install  a language package; that's 
strange!
But the question is yet here: why don't they do a link near to the 
localized installer to language package? 
Thanks a lot, 
Luigi
