Is there a way to examine my -lang-packages whether they have the correct setup
or not?

If not i would have to do a second installation. However because i'm aiming for
a very limited set of packages chances would be high that i only would find
very few of the faulty ones.

Isn't there a way (in OBS) to address all owners of -lang-packages or - even
better - a way to check -lang-packages by script?

As i already said in my comment #5: i don't have access to that system any more
but both problems (no desktop-manager installed, missing language packs) can be
reproduced at any time as i described in my initial post.
