Bug Description

Hi,
I want to install "Min-nan (Chinese)" from "Language Support" on wily,
but can not find it from the language list.
Last time I can install it is on a trusty (LTS) machine.
After some searching, I find it removed after vivid,
but it is not mentioned for a reason in release notes.
I know there is only few translations for this language,
but at least I wish to use the locale settings.
Currently I add an entry to /var/lib/locales/supported/local and run locale-gen to get it,
but is it possible to bring the language package (and future translations) back?
Thanks.

Hello,

The publishing history for this package (can be found in the upper right corner on the overview page) mentions it was removed from Utopic:
"langpack with less than 5% coverage"
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/language-pack-nan/+publishinghistory

I don't know the exact process around language packs, but presumably more translations would be needed for the package to be reintroduced.
