Bug#171912: tetex-bin: (Fatal format file error; I'm stymied)



Hello again,

The problem is now solved, see below.

Not quite, it happened to several machines, however it will only
affect those who had hyphenation patterns in swedish in their previous
language.dat and answered N during upgrade.

The problem was caused because the swedish hyphenation pattern
disappered:

\l@swedish=\language4

! I can't find file `sehyph.tex'.
<to be read again> 
                   \relax 

Probably this is due to a licencing/policy issue since I found this
comment the new language.dat:

% Please contact me, if for any of the following languages there are
% freely available hyphenation tables:
%       catalan esperanto galician slovene swedish
% I might want to include them in a future version of this file.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
% Email   : Thomas Esser, te@dbs.uni-hannover.de

So I guess you can clear this bug. (but it is likely that this will
happen to more people needing swedish hyphenation.)

Therefore I will se what I can do to figure out who put a stupid
licence on sehyph.tex and try to ask them to change it.

Best wishes

Urban
