[Gimp-developer] How to distribute translated/translatable python plugins in 2.99

[Ofnuts <ofnuts gmx com>]

What is necessary to distribute a translation-enabled python plugin for
2.99?

I assume that the plugin distribution should be self-sufficient  since
it cannot assume that translations will be available in some general
repository.

What should the plugin directory look like (it seems it needs a "locale"
subdirectory)? But adding and "fr.po" file there with some msgid/msgstr
doesn't seem enough. Are there examples available (outside of Gimp's
source code since these use the general repo).

And do menu locations need to be translated as well?
