Hi again,

I've written the script to install gvSIG from deb package (and its
dependencies, libstdc++5 and sun-java5-jre), it also places a gvSIG
icon on desktop and downloads the gvSIG manual.

I've tested on the VM deleting any gvSIG user configuration and the
default language was English, so finally I didn't have to touch
anything about that.

These are the changesets are 1856[1] and 1858[2].

Hope it helps.

Cheers
