Comment # 7 on bug 1192290 from Stefan Hundhammer

I just checked on Tumbleweed: XFCE packages appear to bundle all languages in
one language package. I have:

[sh @ balrog-tw-dev] ~ 10 % rpm -qa "xfce4*lang*"
xfce4-appfinder-lang-4.16.1-1.6.noarch
xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin-lang-2.6.1-1.1.noarch
xfce4-session-lang-4.16.0-1.7.noarch
xfce4-taskmanager-lang-1.4.2-1.6.noarch
xfce4-panel-lang-4.16.3-1.5.noarch
xfce4-screenshooter-lang-1.9.9-1.3.noarch
xfce4-dict-lang-0.8.4-1.7.noarch
xfce4-power-manager-lang-4.16.0-1.7.noarch
xfce4-terminal-lang-0.8.10-1.7.noarch
xfce4-settings-lang-4.16.2-1.2.noarch
xfce4-pulseaudio-plugin-lang-0.4.3-2.6.noarch

Maybe you didn't have any xfce4-*lang packages installed at all.
Did you by any chance install with "no recommends"?
