Comment(by informatique@…):

 If I understand your question correctly, I'd say the simpliest way would
 be to provide one l10n package per language, just as it was for the KDE 3
 packages in Macports.

 Including a language setting in Macports seems overkill to me. Why make a
 setting that would impact the whole project with unforseen side-effects
 for non-KDE packages?

 Making a variant for each language : which package would have all those
 variants? kdelibs4?

 So I would just go with traditional language packages that users can
 install / uninstall at will without playing with variant flags or
 recompiling any central package. As far as I know, that's how most Linux
 distributions do it and that's how the KDE project intends the l10n files
 to get installed.
