When firefox updates to 18.0 version in UBUNTU 12.04 and 12.10 64 bits system, menu language is changed from catalan to english. If you try to download and install the catalan xpi file, firefox rejects to install it becouse it's corrupted.

Yes, there appears to be an error in the install.rdf file caused by to empty lines at the start of the file. 

Error: XML or text declaration not at start of entity
Source File: jar:file:///home/dick/.mozilla/firefox/kd18lsbf.testRE/extensions/langpack-ca@firefox.mozilla.org.xpi!/install.rdf
Line: 3, Column: 1
Source Code:
<?xml version="1.0"?>

Editing the install.rdf file and removing the two lines makes it possible to install the Catalan (ca) language pack for now.
