Thanks. But it was a stray tetex config file. I was pointed to

That was a good idea, and necessary to do, thanks.
However, latex and pdflatex apparently still don't want to use the 
language.dat file with the now correct entries. Funnily, xlatex does!
So, as workaround I've converted to UTF-8 and use xelatex now.

Any other ideas?

[gentoo-user] TeXlive with non-English hyphenation?

2008-03-05 Thread Ralf Stephan 
Hello,

Does someone use TeXlive and has encountered and solved
non-English hyphenation problems? I have tried both babel.sty
with the german/germanb options and german.sty from the
package texlive-langgerman, always giving the command
\selectlanguage{german}

babel.sty gives 
Package babel Warning: No hyphenation patterns were loaded for
(babel)the language `German'
(babel)I will use the patterns loaded for \language=0
instead.

german.sty gives
german -- \language number for German undefined, default 255 used,
german -- Please read gerdoc.tex how to install hyphenation patterns.
german -- \language number for Austrian undefined, default 255 used.
german -- \language number for French undefined, default 255 used.

Many thanjks for any hints!

Regards,
ralf
