No, the file sent (mumble_debconf_ro.po) is the translation of the 
"debconf"
messages that appear when installing the "mumble" package and is placed 
in
debian/po/ro.po of the build tree, and the translations of the "mumble"
software messages are found in src/mumble /qttranslations/qt_LANG.ts of 
the
build tree.

The only inconvenience was not knowing how to incorporate the file into 
the Debian package -- the workflow described above makes sense. As long 
as I know what to do and can make the time I'm willing to do the work 
needed to incorporate desired changes.

Thanks very much for your work


As you can see, mumble message translations are found in a different 
place
and format than debconf-mumble message translations (*.ts vs. *.po) and
(src/mumble /qttranslations/qt_LANG.ts vs. debian/po/LANG.po).

I hope these explanations will help you in your work on packaging the
"mumble" package.
