Note that my solution worked for me, but that does not mean that it's
the correct/best/only way. You should first check how it works under
openSUSE-Leap, e.g. check /path/to/dblatex/.../lang.xsl, check which
babel or french package are installed, etc.
Maybe there's a much better way (without patching dblatex).

And remember that I bypassed the openSUSE package system, I'm using a
Tex Live DVD. All *I* had to do was "tlmgr install babel-french"...

... and that's all I know - I'm a newbie too!

I recommend that you install the proper Ubuntu (or Debian?) package,
e.g.

	http://packages.ubuntu.com/wily/texlive-lang-french
or        
	https://packages.debian.org/jessie/texlive-lang-french

Alternatively you can try to just follow the instructions.
Set TEXMF to ~/.texmf and install the files:

	luatex frenchb.ins
	TEXMF=~/.texmf
	mkdir -vp $TEXMF/{tex,source,doc}/generic/babel-french
	cp -pv frenchb.{ldf,lua} $TEXMF/tex/generic/babel-french
	cp -pv frenchb.{dtx,ins} $TEXMF/source/generic/babel-french
	cp -pv frenchb.pdf README $TEXMF/doc/generic/babel-french

Look easy. :) Good luck! ;)

Bye,
Ulf
