Well, the translations are there in focal.

$ echo $(LANGUAGE=oc gettext -d dpkg '(Reading database ... ')

And if you open gnome-terminal and run

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade

you'll see the messages in your language.

However, I could reproduce the issue in focal by using the Software 
Updater tool. Apparently there is some bug in update-manager, so the 
messages are shown untranslated in the Details view.

Considering that it works as expected in both hirsute and impish, maybe 
it's something we can live with. At least there seems not to be a 
general Launchpad bug with translations not being 'transferred' between 
the releases.
