In your original message you say you did apt-get install, so I imagine 
you are installing from some repository or PPA. It seems LibreOffice 
will be default on Natty but, as it is alpha I wonder what version you 
installed and if the language packs have made it in the repos. I'm sure 
they'll all be there by release.

Meanwhile, I also use two languages (English and Italian) and I think 
the best way is to use the debs provided on the website as suggested by 
webmaster for Kracked Press Productions. Install the US deb and then the 
language pack(s) of interest.

Lorenzo.
