Problem/Motivation

The visibility settings of blocks with translations are not migrated. This was discovered while working on #2225681: Migrate D6 i18n blocks translated strings →

In #90 → of that issue maxocub wrote:
What I understood and what I tried was:
1) Fresh D6 install
2) Enable i18nblocks
3) Add a language, say French
4) Enable path prefix for language selection
5) Go to the Blocks page
6) Configure a block, say Navigation
7) Chose French in the languages selection
8) Now, if you are seeing the site in English, you don't see the Navigation block, but if you see it in French (/fr) you see it.
9) Then if you migrate, on the D8 site the Navigation block is visible on both English and French, which is not the same behavior as on the D6 site.

If on the D8 site I configure the Main Navigation block and select French, then the visibility configuration of the block will be:

visibility:
  language:
    id: language
    langcodes:
      fr: fr
    negate: false
    context_mapping:
      language: '@language.current_language_context:language_interface'

But in the above migration scenario, the visibility configuration of the block is empty.

Proposed resolution

Write a patch.
