[docker] How to set the locale inside a Debian/Ubuntu Docker container?

Those who use Debian also have to install locales package.

RUN apt-get update && DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -y locales

RUN sed -i -e 's/# en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8/en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8/' /etc/locale.gen && \
    dpkg-reconfigure --frontend=noninteractive locales && \
    update-locale LANG=en_US.UTF-8

ENV LANG en_US.UTF-8 

This answer helped me a lot.
