Another point of view would be to push Debian to have a global solution for translation packages and have some intelligence in apt so that apt-get install koffice will install automatically the translation package corresponding to your locale and have a new option in apt like apt-get install -translation=de kmail But Daniel Stone wrote an e-mail saying that this kind of behaviour would violate Debian Policy. I still don't understand really why it is such an heresy but it must be my ignorance. But it doesn't solve your problem now. My point of view is to create separates i18n packages for koffice because of the different release cycles even if it adds to the entropy of Debian repositories.
