I think I should not add the rsync as a requirement now that the
patches use the bootstrap code for downloading translations. It
appears that the only place where rsync might be used is in
gnulib/build-aux/gnu-web-doc-update, which you might be using to update
the documentation on gnu.org. Currently, I don't think we have a place
to document requirements needed by project maintainers. If we want to
document that it should be in a separate series.

Of course rsync is still used in the, now depreciated, linguas.sh, but
users should not be using that. I left linguas.sh as a fallback in the
unlikely case that there's some edge case where it might be needed. I
would say after the release we should remove that file.
