Description
There seems to be some issue with the localized installation packages.
First sign was that the number of installation packages was exactly the same as the number of released translations.
Next the Chinese team noted that their adapted files didn't get included, https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/2024/11/13/wordpress-6-7-zh_cn-packaging-issues/
then after a discussion on Slack, other teams reported the same issue.

Can anyone here help confirm what the problem is?

Italian zip file for WordPress 6.7 has this problem too.
We usually create our new SVN branch for each major release with the Italian version of readme.html and wp-config-sample.php files a few days before the official release date.
We did the last one on 4th November. You can see it here: https://i18n.svn.wordpress.org/it_IT/branches/6.7/dist/
I also checked the zip files of the lastest Italian releases of WP from 6.7 up to version 6.0. These are the packages that don't have the Italian version of readme.html and wp-config-sample.php:
wp 6.7
wp 6.6.2
wp 6.6.1
wp 6.6
wp 6.5.5
wp 6.4.5
wp 6.3.5
wp 6.2.6
wp 6.1.7
wp 6.0.9
We will also follow this ticket to know what to do to solve the problem and find out if we need to do something different next time.
Thanks!
According to the manual https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/handbook/for-editors/packaging-localized-wordpress/automated-release-packages/#minor-custom-changes-for-the-current-stable-version description,
wp-content/languages/$locale.php
file will not be automatically packaged in.However, the Chinese team uses this file to meet government compliance requirements (These two licenses are required to host a website in mainland China) and provide video embedding for websites in mainland China that do not support oEmbed.
Can Meta team fix this to allow
wp-content/languages/$locale.php
to be packaged into core (likewp-config-simple.php
etc)?The following is the content of the
wp-content/languages/zh_CN.php
file created by Chinese team in previous versions:
