I am also on PPC and having trouble installing language packs. I specifically
tried to install the language packs for British English and Welsh/Cymraeg. Once
installed, LibreOffice correctly picks up Welsh as the appropriate default for
the user interface but the .app provided for installation does not work for
either pack. In both cases, I moved the .tar.bz2 file to LibreOffice.app/ and
just used bunzip2 and gnutar -xf to install the files manually. This seems to
work fine but is probably not a method accessible to most users. (And if this
is the best method, it would obviously be easier to just download the .tar.bz2
archive rather than having to disentangle the .app.)
Hardware is PPC 7450, 1.5GHz with OS X 10.4.11.
Errors from console.log:

I have dictionaries installed as part of the main application install for
various languages, including UK English, Spanish, French etc. Basically
dict-en, dict-es and dict-fr appear to be installed by default. There's no
dictionary for Welsh either by default or in the language pack but this might
just be a lack of support for Welsh. The user interface is only partially
translated in any case.
The .app does start the installation process. I get the initial dialogue with
the choice to "Abort" or "Install". (None of this is translated for the Welsh
pack - interface is identical to UK English.) However, on clicking on
"Install", the application simply disappears without trace. So I assume that
the issue is with the applescript?

OK. You should probably ignore my report. The installation applications fail in
my case because I've disabled Spotlight. It would be nice if it would just ask
me where LibreOffice is installed but disabling Spotlight is presumably
considered a non-approved customisation so I must take responsibility for the
consequences!
