Hi Claudio, I'm using uptex regularly, but don't have such a problem.
>From your comments, you have your _own_ "hyph-la-x-classic.tex" installed under your texmf-local (not under texmf-dist, which should be distributed officially), right? > /usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/tex/generic/hyph-utf8/patterns/tex/hyph-la-x-classic.tex Could you attach the file? And, your statement > apparently the file hyph-la-x-classic.tex file exists but > some engines do not foind it. is not so clear. As uptex reports, it is going to find "hyph-la-x-classic.ec.tex" not "hyph-la-x-classic.tex". Hironobu
