As far as I know, you can't tell our build systems to only release one subpackage, and hold back all the others. So if you want to issue an update, you would be forced to issue all languages at once, and you push an update on everyone, even people whose content is not changing at all.
However if the packages do not require each other (makes sense) and they are subpackages, one can only choose certain subpackages to submit as an update to Bodhi, IIRC.
Ah, this is something I got wrong. The build process would still be tremendously long-winded for a small nugget of actual package we care about, but I suppose that is, in fact, why we use computers to do it and not pencil and paper (or monkeys with typewriters). ;-)
There are no such package Requires: AFAIK. Worth factoring into the equation, thanks Ian.
