* correct handling of UI language
* don't change Linguistic.xml after first startup(#168780)
* TODO: provide better defaults on first startup
This patch is from Lucien Saviot - sorry this one got a bit lost.
Lucien did some analysis of the Language configuration, and made these
observations about the current wrapper:
***************************
To sumarize, the language used by the UI is:
1/ the one in the ooLocale section if it is valid
2/ LANG if the ooLocale section exists but is empty or invalid
3/ english if everything else fails.
***************************
I think that up to now, we never created valid ooLocale sections (except
maybe for en-US in some rare cases!), that's why the LANG variable was used.
I tend to prefer the <ooLocale cfg:type="string"/> tag, because it fails
back to using LANG. This way, normal users should be happy and "power
users" can use wathever language they prefer at tun-time with the
LANG=??_?? openoffice trick.
This patch implements the change, and removes the DefaultLocale tweaking, which
can be set using the GUI anyway.
