Uh, I must've broken something :( Normally the langpacks are built with the
other .debs.

On my machine, that would have made langpacks too :-/

The langpack target was purely a way of making it easier to make minor
modifications to the packaging without having to wait for the unpack process
every time.
The end of the process looks like this:
setup - Run OOo network install from the instsetoo directory,
installing to debian/tmp
install - Copy files from tmp into the correct locations for the
final package layout in debian/openoffice.org and
debian/openoffice.org-bin, and make adjustments to file paths,
desktop files etc.
langpack - Extract language-specific files from the language instsetoo
directories and move into the langpack directories
debian/openoffice.org-l10n-XX
binary-arch - Build openoffice.org-bin package
binary-indep - Build non-archspecific packages: openoffice.org and the
language packs
You can also generate a single package with the command:
fakeroot debian/rules binary-<packagename>
e.g. fakeroot debian/rules binary-openoffice.org-l10n-en
will generate a specific .deb. But normally you should have generated those
.debs already. Maybe there is a problem with the control file. Do you see
langpacks listed in debian/control?
