[SOLVED] Libreoffice langauge files

Hello dear Artix team,

is it correct that there is still no German language file for Libreoffice fresh?
If there is, I have not found it yet.

libreoffice-fresh-de is in Arch extra repo.  So if needed, basically add those to install easily:

I have activate the Arch Repos Extra and  universe and onmiverse. This is not the Problem. It ist the LO update.

I downgraded different older LO Versions which was running before upgrade.  Anyway also in downgeades versions there is no german language available. This is strange an I can not explain this to me.

.. LibreOffice detects your system defaults and sets as locale setting; manual installation of a language pack is no longer mandatory, required only for localized user interface.

Where can I find my "system defaults"? I guess they didn't change with the last Artix update?
May be LO don't "read" or find this setings?
I didn't change anything in system defaults.

Here is a "Translated User Interface: Deutsch" https://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/stable/7.5.1/deb/x86_64/LibreOffice_7.5.1_Linux_x86-64_deb_langpack_de.tar.gz.mirrorlist
but this are deb packages and I dont know how to do this. Also I learned not to use foreign packages.

The LO updates was:
[2023-03-06T10:12:23+0100] [ALPM] upgraded libreoffice-fresh (7.5.0-1 -> 7.5.1-1)
[2023-03-06T10:12:23+0100] [ALPM] upgraded libreoffice-fresh-de (7.5.0-1 -> 7.5.1-1)
all was ok and in german.

Next LO update, since here no german.
[2023-03-18T07:51:34+0100] [ALPM] upgraded libreoffice-fresh (7.5.1-1 -> 7.5.1-1.1)

But accidently I found this https://api.kde.org/frameworks/ki18n/html/ (because of the i18n the name of the LO language packs in the past)
I don't understand this an don't know if there is a context, but it have to do with translations.
Here LO was in German
[2022-03-26T00:25:00+0100] [ALPM] upgraded ki18n (5.91.0-1 -> 5.92.0-1)
And here after upgrading this ki18n no german.
[2023-03-17T12:09:55+0100] [ALPM] upgraded ki18n (5.103.0-1 -> 5.104.0-1)

Ok, my solution is,
libreoffice-fresh Version: 7.4.4-2 with  libreoffice-fresh-de 7.5.1-1 (insted of the newest 7.5.1-1.1)
/var/cache/pacman/pkg/libreoffice-fresh-de-7.5.1-1-any.pkg.tar.zst.sig

Now I have my german back

I’ve noticed that some dependencies are no longer required, including liborcus. Does this restrict LibreOffice functionality?
