I ran into the same problem myself. Are you working off a CD or from files that you have ftp'd recently from ftp.debian.org ? I recommend that you get the latest tex files from Debian's ftp site and then make sure that you do *not* install the cfg hyphenation rules when you install the texlib package. That's what worked for me.
