The rpm command you need is rpm -q --qf %{FILELANGS} <package>.
On my severn system:
hbo at mycop|1016> rpm -q --qf %{FILELANGS} kde-i18n-British
en_GB
hbo at mycop|1017>
Whereas:
hbo at mycop|1017> rpm -q --qf %{FILELANGS} openssh
hbo at mycop|1018>
So, no output for packages without "FILELANGS". I haven't looked into
whether FILELANGS corresponds to to %lang, but I assume it does.
