Hi,

I noticed that PostgreSQL 11.17 rpm did not have share/locale/ro/LC_MESSAGES/plpgsql-11.mo.
This is because 'ro' has been removed in src/pl/plpgsql/src/nls.mk by Translation updates commit (*).
And PostgreSQL 12.12 rpm also does not have share/locale/pl/LC_MESSAGES/pg_ctl-12.mo.
I got the rpms from the following URL:

https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/11/redhat/rhel-8-x86_64/
https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/12/redhat/rhel-8-x86_64/

However, the NLS Wiki has the following description:
https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/NLS#Minimum_Translation
-----
If a file drops below the threshold after the major release during
the maintenance period of a branch, it will not be removed because of that.
-----

Is it correct to remove any language from nls.mk in minor version updates?
Or was it removed for some other reason?

Hmm, that's odd.  That nls.mk should not have been modified in that
commit.  I have no explanation for this, but it was definitely not
intentional.  I must have made a merge mistake as I was running that
script for the first time since years. (I ran it with the deletion
switch, then reverted that and re-ran without it.)

Anyway, the state of many of our translations is very sad.  Romanian is
one of those that is slowly dying from a state that was, as I remember,
never very good.

Thank you for reply.
I understand that the policy written on the wiki hasn't changed.
