But only german, russian and a very very very few other exceptions. All other packages for other languages are empty and that it to be expected. > say. I'd expect at least > ukhyphen.def to come in.

The package should just enable hyphenation patterns that are otherwise part of hyph-utf8. It was not practical to split hyph-utf8 into zillions of packages (the package is only a few MB), while being able not to include some languages means smaller footprint of TeX formats and possibly faster processing of documents (most users don't need 50 different languages).
