Hello Blake and Jane,
thanks for all the magic.
We still try to solve multiple problems with localization. So image with
enabled i18n will be better for us and our testing.
Unfortunately our builded image does not start correctly / it reports some
access issue

I will try it one more time from build. But maybe you meet already this
issue.
I use for build kvm virtual machine with Ubuntu LTS 22.04 and actual
docker.io. everything is running under user added in docker group.
Many thanks for all your inputs
