Dear Pip, I had a Virtualbox install of Fedora 16 RC2 lying around and tried to reproduce the issue you describe. After a fresh install of TeXLive 2011 without any extra hyphenation patterns, I got the expected 'no hyphenation patterns found for ...' warning from babel. However, after installing the texlive-hyphenation-german package (yum install ...), this warning disappeared. Additionally, the croatian hyphenation patterns can be loaded after installing the texlive-hyphen-croatian package. Now, the last lines of the language.dat file are german loadhyph-de-1901.tex ngerman loadhyph-de-1996.tex swissgerman loadhyph-de-ch-1901.tex croatian loadhyph-hr.tex If your language.dat or language.def file is broken for some reason, you can try to fix it by removing both files, removing the base hypen package (texlive- hyphen-base) and all hyphen packages. You can list the ones that are installed by issuing rpm -qa | grep texlive-hyphen Next, after a reinstall, everything should work. Hence, you should do (as root) rm -f `kpsewhich language.dat` rm -f `kpsewhich language.def` packages=$(rpm -qa | grep texlive-hyphen) Verify now that 'echo $packages' only lists the hyphen packages, and then do rpm -e --nodeps $packages yum -y install $packages Regards, Pjotr. _______________________________________________ TeXLive mailing list TeXLive@linux.cz http://www.linux.cz/mailman/listinfo/texlive
