generating some locales in a directory and setting LOCPATH.

Use-mozc-as-the-default-input-source-for-Japanese.patch Use mozc as the default input source for Japanese
Upstream prefers ibus-anthy for Japanese input, while Debian uses
ibus-mozc as the default. In particular, task-japanese-gnome-desktop
Recommends ibus-mozc on architectures where it is available.

There seems to be consensus that mozc is a better default for Debian. It
is also the default in Ubuntu since 16.04 at the request of Japanese
Ubuntu users, according to Ubuntu developer Gunnar Hjalmarsson.

Fall-back-to-ibus-anthy-if-ibus-mozc-jp-is-unavailable.patch Fall back to ibus:anthy if ibus:mozc-jp is unavailable
According to discussion on #1029821, mozc only supports little-endian
CPU architectures (for example i386 and arm64) and does not support
big-endian CPU architectures (for example powerpc and s390x), which
is why task-japanese-desktop and task-japanese-gnome-desktop have a
fallback dependency on uim-anthy and ibus-anthy respectively. Reflect
this by falling back to anthy if mozc doesn't appear to be installed.
