You just didn't look at the right place. Here it is:
https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/jaunty/+lang/eo/

Everywhere you see purple color, that means the package contains
non-upstreamed translations.

Go with 2.28, as Andre told you.

This is not two translations. The first one is the translation uploaded
by the user, and the second one is an automatically merged version by
the system with the latest POT file.

Downloading source code from Git is only useful if you're pushing the
file yourself.

The suggested workflow is:
- download the *.merged.po file, proofread and complete it if needed.
You can use the "Reserve for proofreading", "Upload the proofread
translation", "Ready to commit" actions to achieve this.
- as long as you don't own a Git account, write to this list whenever
you have files to commit, either on l10n.gnome.org in the Ready to
commit state or in a Bugzilla report, at your convenance.
