Hi Christopher, we're already in contact with some people at LibreOffice. The problem with the locale is that LibreOffice (so did OpenOffice.org) doesn't support the BCP-47 standard. This means that there is no way the can implement @ modifications (at this moment).

It seems that this is somewhat tricky and no one is going to take care of it right now. I guess that once they implement it, Debian developers will add it to the translation package.

I expected Ubuntu just to add this package even though the locale is wrong. The thing is that Ubuntu already implements the ca@valencia locale, but this doesn't include the LibreOffice ca-XV package (for reasons above). This means that the Catalan (Valencian) ubuntu isos that we're creating cannot install the ca-XV package directly, and we have to delete LibreOffice and install it again from the version from libreoffice.org (that means that then this package won't be upgraded).

But things have to be done in the right way. I completely understand that.

Thanks for your help and time!!
