I have not tested it, but it's my understanding that only the
languages specified at /var/lib/zypp/RequestedLocales should be
installed. That should be just *your* languages.
The "OpenOffice_org-help-<lang>" packages have a "Provides:
locale(OpenOffice_org:<lang>)" that is expanded to "Supplements:
OpenOffice_org & namespace:language(<lang>)", that's what I suppose is
triggering the install.
