Nuxt-i18n configuration

This is the generated configuration dist/nuxt-i18n/options.js
Be aware, we're only using one language, for sake of testing/reproducability we've added a 2nd language.

export const locales = [{"name":"German","code":"de","iso":"de-DE","file":"de-DE.json"},{"name":"Swiss-German","code":"ch","iso":"de-CH","file":"de-CH.json"}]

Steps to reproduce

Run yarn build --production
move/delete your locales folder (from your project)
Run yarn start

What is Expected?

It is expected that nuxt-i18n uses the locales from generated (dist) folder.

What is actually happening?

It tries to use locales file from our local project. The source files are not available in our docker image.

If you need help to reproduce, we can set up a Zoom call, or I can try to provide further information if needed.
This bug was introduced recently, most likley with the update to 6.13.3/4.

Let me do some substantial refactor to fix it and hopefully not break anything more in the process...

[zeidlos]

For now we mitigate this, copying our locales folder into the docker image. That should work and not block us.

Thank you very much for your swift response and work on this project!

Resolved in v6.13.5

Thanks for good reports and sorry for the breakage. :)

Wow - that was faster than fast!

[zeidlos]

I can confirm that it works as intended again! Thanks! ;)

Did you bring friends with you or the issue is so common? ;)
I've never seen so many "reactions" in a random bug. :)

Of course! You always bring friends/coworkers to appreciate great work from an open source contributor. ;)
