exists in the latest release of ru.po?

Thanks for the report.  However, translation bugs are not handled in
coreutils.git, but with the respective translation team.  I've added
[email-masked] in cc, based on these portions of ru.po:

"Last-Translator: Yuri Kozlov <[email-masked]>\n"
"Language-Team: Russian <[email-masked]>\n"

#. bugs (typically your translation team's web or email address).
