Language entry in od.config

The language option is a list of string. Each string is formatted as a locale variable. The locale is simply the language/country combination en + US = en_US

Language in abcdesktop.io oc.user

The language list must match with the oc.user local packages all ready installed.

If the language is not found, the default value is set to en_US

The oc.user.18.04 is built-in with the default language package :

language-pack-en
language-pack-fr

apt-get install -y \
    language-pack-en \
    language-pack-fr \
    && locale-gen    \
    && apt-get clean
