  What of those countries that don't come with a message catalog for it?
Wait till next year?

  The problem is also, that maintainers will change the messages within
those packages, without changing the catalogs.  This will render the
translation of that particular message useless.  You can expect a
maintainer to do some chainges to a package, to reflect the general
stream for a distribution, but you can't expect a maintainer to do
translation as well.
