Comment (by dsjonny):

 I know why: that's because the language code is "pt_PT", so the script
 translate it to "pt". If I turn of this, than the "de_DE" will not work,
 because the documentation is use the "de" instead of the "de_DE" in the
 path name.
 If I want to detect the "pt_PT" too, than the file needs to have duble
 script (to check "pt", "pt_PT", "pt_BR", local and online).

 So, I think we can do 3 things:
 - leave this in this form, but in this case, the user needs to select the
 Portugal manually
 - change the languages which has "sub-language" to the "xx_YY" format (in
 this case we need to remove some part of the script)
 - use single code ("xx") when the "main-code" and the "sub-code" is equal

 I prefer the 2nd, because it's logical, but it needs "more work".
