I think I found the reason here. Looking at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/language-pack-hy, the last Ubuntu release to include the Armenian language pack was Ubuntu 14.04. Based on https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/language-pack-hy/+publishinghistory it looks like the language pack was removed for having less that 5% translations.
Currently around 3% of the text in Ubuntu is translated to Armenian https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/. I suppose if the translation team (https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-l10n-hy) manages to translate a larger part, then the language would be re-included. (I've also marked this as affecting Ubuntu-translations, so that someone can check I'm interpreting the removal correctly.) ** Package changed: ubuntu => language-pack-hy (Ubuntu) ** Also affects: ubuntu-translations Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Translators Packages, which is subscribed to language-pack-hy in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1798535 Title: Missing Armenian language pack Status in Ubuntu Translations: New Status in language-pack-hy package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Dear Ubuntu support team While working with Ubuntu 18.04 i noticed that the 18.04 version doesn't have the Armenian language in the options We would like you to add Armenian language in the next update And also what would you suggest us to do while waiting for your update??
