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.
