I just took a closer look at indicator-sound, and indeed I saw the line
"X-Ubuntu-Use-Langpack: yes" which was added at the latest upload on
2017-08-29. And the translation template is present in artful, but not
in bionic.

@Sebastien: Someone must have deleted it; I can't see another
explanation.

I made an attempt to upload the template manually, but that seems to not
have worked. Maybe another upload - just a no-change rebuild? - is
needed to make LP acknowledge the template for bionic.

@Sebastien: We need your advice here. Are no-change rebuilds necessary,
or is there a better way?

@Simon: As regards the unity-* packages: Yeah, I would like to see a
full list too. Just noticed that unity-control-center has that line, but
the unity package has not...

Possibly we need to upload all packages, whether that line is already
there or not, and add it if it isn't there. But let's await Seb's
response before proceeding.

Bug description:
  The Unity family of packages was previously part of standard Ubuntu.
  Thus all the translation templates were made available to the
  translators via Launchpad, and the translations were included in the
  language packs.

  Since those packages are no longer part of standard Ubuntu, they have
  been moved from main to universe. And translations are dropped.

  At the moment, it is feasible for us to keep using langpacks.

  That means adding "X-Ubuntu-Use-Langpack: yes" to their debian/control
  and doing an upload.
