[Bug 1771272] Re: Firefox didn't use the OS default locale

[Jonas Juodė]

Problem is in ubuntu-defaults-builder package, /usr/bin/dh_ubuntu_defaults script - for Firefox 59+ this script should add line
intl.locale.requested=""
in file /usr/lib/firefox/distribution/distribution.ini
I'm attaching a patch againts /usr/bin/dh_ubuntu_defaults script 

** Patch added: "Patch for adding intl.locale.requested="" in dh_ubuntu_defaults"

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  The default language of firefox is English, and it should use the OS default locale.

  [Test Case]
  1. Choose "Chinese" when install Ubuntu Kylin 18.04.
  2. Open Firefox browser and check its default language
  Expected Result: Chinese
  Actual Result:English

  [Regression Potential]
  Low, we just set pref `intl.locale.requested` to an empty string (""), which will cause the browser to use the OS default locale.
