Re: Error: ! Package babel Error: You haven't defined the language french yet.
Works fine for me Ubuntu 18.04, TexLive, Lyx 2.3.3 I noticed is that that the word "France" is in French rather than English. Could this be giving the problem? I live in Canada and automatically set up for English & French when installing. Could you be on a machine that does not have French installed?

The error lies (appropriately) in the word "France" in the address. If you select the word and click the button for text style (or use Edit > Text Style > Customized), you'll see the language is set to French.

Re: Package babel Error: Unknow option `ngerman'
Hi! It looks like the OP is using Debian/unstable or Debian/testing. This is work in progress and there was a re-structuring of the language support packages. So I would consider the problem one of the rough edges of the unstable branch, not a Debian bug. The original poster is running a Debian stable/unstable-mix. I guess that is the reason for some of the problems. Wolfgang, is there any reason why you don't want to run pure Debian/testing or unstable installation? Debian/stable is intended for systems like servers (or the laptops on the ISS) where absolute stability is crucial. If one wants/has to use up-to-date software on Debian/stable, the installation process is very prone to errors. This is the reason I switched from Ubuntu to Debian testing. Ubuntu is based on a more or less dated snapshot of Debian/testing. I spent a week trying to install a piece of new software which had a very old version in the Ubuntu repositories. In the end it was a choice between gnawing of one of my feet in frustration or trying to install Debian/testing. I never had to regret that. Debian/unstable is still incredibly stable, and Debian/testing is even more so. You seem to be tech-savy, able to read and follow instructions and not afraid to ask questions. This more than qualifies you to run it. Additionally, Debian/testing would lead to much less problems. If I select this for installation, synaptic is going to remove a lot of texlive and other stuff, which I hesitate to do. To the actual problem: My guess is a version mixup between the Stable/unstable packages. You can try this: sudo apt-get -t unstable install texlive-lang-all , telling your Debian it shall install the newer packages specifically. There has to be a way to do that in synaptic directly, but I don't know it. Also, you can install the needed language packs specifically, texlife-lang-all is 850 Mb large. The texlive you've installed is the newer version, a dependency of Lyx 2.0.6. Texlive 2012 and 2013 are mutually exclusive packages. For my own problem: In this case, manually removing ngerman (or, if the references are part of the document, not included via BibTeX, changing the language to English) may be a last resort. The text in question is written in English, and I'm not aware of any German reference in it. I've sent the text to a friend to read it, and she opened it in a German LyX-installation. Maybe the line was added at this point, I haven`t exported this particular file to PDF in a while. Greetings! Ph.

Package babel Error: Unknow option `ngerman'
Starting lyx gives me this warning on the terminal. Is it something to bother about? Fontconfig warning: /etc/fonts/conf.d/65-droid-sans-fonts.conf, line 103: Having multiple values in test isn't supported and may not work as expected Fontconfig warning: /etc/fonts/conf.d/65-droid-sans-fonts.conf, line 138: Having multiple values in test isn't supported and may not work as expected more serious: if I try to export a pdf output from my document, I get ! Package babel Error: Unknow option `ngerman'. Either you misspelled it (babel)or the language definition file ngerman.ldf was not found. and no output. I use lyx 2.0.6-1+b1 and texlive 2013 under Debian In the internet I found I solve my problem installing all the complements of Texlive from Synaptic Package manager, to my computer with Ubuntu 13.10 When I upgrade from Ubuntu 13.04 the newest version of Texlive was installed but not the language complements and other programs, then systematic errors araised.

Re: Package babel Error: Unknow option `ngerman'
Hi! more serious: if I try to export a pdf output from my document, I get ! Package babel Error: Unknow option `ngerman'. Either you misspelled it (babel)or the language definition file ngerman.ldf was not found. and no output. I use lyx 2.0.6-1+b1 and texlive 2013 under DebianI had the same error while compiling documents, I solved it by manually deleting all lines from the document in question which contained "/ngerman". (By opening them in a text editor and using the search feature) This worked like a charm.This can be due to sheer luck, it is possible that this opens a can of worms in other documents.I advice to make backups before editing the source document manually.(By the way, just commenting it out by adding a # to the beginning of the line in question did not work.)If you want to install more packages instead try either "texlive-lang-german" or "texlive-lang-all".Hope this helped,Ph.

If I try to install texlive-lang-all by apt-get install, I get root@wolfgang:/home/we# apt-get install texlive-lang-all Paketlisten werden gelesen... Fertig Abhängigkeitsbaum wird aufgebaut.

Das kann bedeuten, dass Sie eine unmögliche Situation angefordert haben oder, wenn Sie die Unstable-Distribution verwenden, dass einige erforderliche Pakete noch nicht erstellt wurden oder Incoming noch nicht verlassen haben. Die folgenden Informationen helfen Ihnen vielleicht, die Situation zu lösen: Die folgenden Pakete haben unerfüllte Abhängigkeiten: texlive-lang-all : Hängt ab von: texlive-lang-latvian (>= 2012.20120516) soll aber nicht installiert werden and so on in a long list Perhaps instead of trying to install all languages, just install those you want to use. Install them before you install LyX, maybe. Actually, though, why you can't install all languages is somehow a fault of either the package maintainer, or the archive you are using. What came after where you cut this off? Did it say why it was not going to install the Latvian package? Maybe the file wasn't found? -- David L.

Re: babel error with view Additional Manual lyx 2.1.0beta1
2013/9/18 Neal Becker ndbeck...@gmail.com 2.1.0b1 on fedora 19 linux. I tried view Additional Manual, and I get a stream of errors like: Package babel Error: Unknow option `ngerman'. Either you misspelled it Any hints? Seems your LaTeX installation is broken. ngerman is the (new spelling) German language module of babel, and \usepackage[ngerman]{babel} should just work anywhere.

Well, we lawyers call this, that "you have got exactly, what you've bargained for". When you ask for german document, you get it. If you want english document with some german words in it, set document language to english (L/D/O), delete everything in the Layout/Document/Other options and Layout/LaTeX preamble, and use Layout/Character/Language for setting up the language of the particular words to german. It SHOULD work (at least it works for me). Have a nice day Matej
