Package: tex-common Version: 1.17 Severity: important It unfortunately looks like there's some brokenness left in tex-common. If I rebuild texlive-lang against current tex-common, it seems many hyphenation patterns aren't getting installed:

(The languages that do have hyphenations available appear to be the packages that happened to get configured before texlive-latex-base.) With texlive-extra also rebuilt, I'm also occasionally getting strange problems with font encodings, like this from my pbuilder build log for chaksem: .... latex chaksem-doc.tex This is pdfTeXk, Version 3.141592-1.40.3 (Web2C 7.5.6) %&-line parsing enabled. entering extended mode (./chaksem-doc.tex LaTeX2e <2005/12/01> Babel <v3.8h> and hyphenation patterns for english, usenglishmax, dumylang, noh yphenation, loaded.
