Bug Description
Several .po files exist with different encodings, like SJIS. CP936, etc. Those are completely useless for Linux users as translations get converted with iconv into the encoding the user is using anyways. We prefer to use UTF-8 for import into Launchpad Rosetta. So, if there are UTF-8 encoded .po files available in addition to other encodings, please rename the .UTF-8.po files to .po and remove the other encodings.
Affected files in the vim package:
cs.cp1250.po -> remove
ja.sjis.po -> remove
pl.cp1250.po -> remove
ru.cp1251.po -> remove
sk.cp1250.po -> remove
uk.cp1251.po -> remove
zh_CN.cp936.po -> remove
pl.UTF-8.po -> rename to pl.po and overwrite the existing one
zh_CN.UTF-8.po -> rename to zh_CN.po and overwrite the existing one
zh_TW.UTF-8.po -> rename to zh_TW.po and overwrite the existing one
