This bug was fixed in the package util-linux - 2.30.2-0.1ubuntu2
---------------
util-linux (2.30.2-0.1ubuntu2) bionic; urgency=medium
* No change rebuild to try to resolve an outdated translations issue,
the package was configured on launchpad to share its strings with an
upstream vcs but the corresponding import is failing for some years.
We are trying to go back to use the source package translations
instead now (lp: #1730793)

Title:
Translations not imported from upstream
Status in Ubuntu Translations:
New
Status in util-linux package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
The listing of Ubuntu source package translations (for Danish) reveals
that the last import of translations for util-linux happened in 2011:
https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/artful/+lang/da/+index?batch=300&memo=300&start=300
The Ubuntu source package version is 2.30, which appears to be from
2017 (on my Ubuntu 16.04 it is 2.27 which is also relatively new).
Either way it should have imported the translations from 2017. Indeed
util-linux has been translated very well in Danish for quite a few
years:
https://translationproject.org/domain/util-linux.html
More precisely, 4000 translations are available and they have not been
imported for (apparently) 6 years, leaving Danish at the level of 600
strings.
I suspect this is not really an issue with the util-linux source
package, but rather with the whole Ubuntu/Launchpad translations
workflow. I can see that several packages have similar problems, and
that is probably just the tip of the iceberg. Unfortunately I have no
clue how to approach that - at least I cannot file a bug report
against The Whole Thing. So if someone could speak to someone who
could speak to someone who can actually get this to work, it would
also be extremely good.
