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?

Daisuke, Higuchi
