Twenty Eleven Losses Translation After 3.2.1 Update
After the localized 3.2.1 update, I noticed that Twenty Eleven translation is dropped. Looking through the filesystem, no .po or .mo files could be found under wp-content/themes/twentyeleven/languages/. However, corresponding .po and .mo files can be found in localized packages.
Do any of you have this issue, too?

I you update to Twenty Eleven 1.2 via theme updater, translations are lost.

Yeah. Many of our users reported that. Besides manually moving .po and .mo files in, is there any better solution to offer to them?
I also tried re-installing the localized core, but Twenty Eleven remained in English

Right now, no. In the future, language packs.

Just an explanation of whats happening here:
The Theme updates from .org do not include localised files, as such, updating to the theme from .org installs a copy of the theme which does not include them.
3.2 no longer updates the theme during a core update (as happened in the past) and core is the only place (At present) which includes the language files.
The same thing would’ve happened with TwentyTen, except updates of core would happen at the same time (which caused the translation files to be copied into place), masking the problem.
Language packs are really the ideal solution to this problem, but not a short term solution for 3.2.x
So we know its happening (now), and we know the cause of it, The only question is how it’s to be fixed. Stay tuned and we’ll sort it out somehow.
