As pacman will happily install multiple replacement packages, I would suggest removing the provides= line from libreoffice-common and adding replaces=libreoffice to the split packages that should get installed when upgrading.
And 'libreoffice-langpack' needs to be removed from depends of libreoffice-common. It doesn't make much sense to have it in depends and in optdepends anyway. I think it's better to keep it in optdepends, maybe with a post install note that no language package has been installed.
Because of this someone got his language pack been uninstalled and replaced by a different one by pacman -Syu.
See the bug report I have mentioned earlier.

i thought there was a choosing phase before actually install a language pack when upgrading. the default choice is alphabetically the first, which may caused the problem you just depicted.

If you install libreoffice-common for the first time libreoffice-langpack is installed as a dependency and then you get the chooser, but not if you upgrade libreoffice with pacman -Syu.
Nevertheless libreoffice-langpack currently is in both depends and optdepends in libreoffice-common which is at least redundant.
Well, the language pack issue mentioned in the bug report regarding the libreoffice group issue seems to be related to clyde, not to pacman.

i pacman -Syu'ed yesterday, and i got to choose which language pack to install. i guess it is the problem of the pacman wrapper you are using.

It was not me that was using clyde. ;-)
But it indeed seems to be related to clyde.
If you have already installed a language pack pacman -Syu keeps and upgrades this language pack. But if you have no language pack installed pacman -Syu shows the language chooser.
I guess that this chooser was not presented to this user is an issue with clyde.
Remain the issues that libreoffice-langpack is in both depends and optdepends of libreoffice-common, which is at least redundant, and the libreoffice group issue which ought to be fixed by removing 'libreoffice' from provides of libreoffice-common.

Are you sure? I just upgraded last night with pacman -Syu and got the language pack chooser. After pacman -S libreoffice-impress, I'm able to work on my slides fine.
