There's a proposal to have langpacks defined by weak and rich dependency feature of rpm [1] without rpm macros and plugin code. That way the unneeded langpack would be automatically erased when the package it belongs to does not exist on your system anymore or you have removed the language. > But it should work on rpm level.
