Hello,<br>
<br>
I´m using MikTeX (recently updated), XeTeX and the language
"german". If I load the language with Polyglossia, I will get the
following errors:<br>
<span style=" vertical-align:top;">Missing number, treated as zero.<br>
<to be read again> <br>
\l@german <br>
l.124 \begin{document}</span><br>
<br>
<span style=" vertical-align:top;">Missing number, treated as zero.<br>
<to be read again> <br>
\l@german <br>
l.20 \select@language {german}</span><br>

Because I knew that it´s a bug in polyglossia
(<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/98270/faulty-output-because-of-polyglossia-issue">http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/98270/faulty-output-because-of-polyglossia-issue</a>)
(How can I send a bug report to the maintainers?), I´ve examined the
languages.ini. For the language german, the entry is:<br>
<br>
[german]<br>
loader=loadhyph-de-1901.tex<br>
lefthyphenmin=2<br>
righthyphenmin=2<br>
patterns=hyph-de-1901.pat.txt<br>
hyphenation=hyph-de-1901.hyp.txt<br>
<br>
My problem: The hyphenation file hyph-de-1901.hyp.txt contains 0
Bytes - it´s clear that LaTeX can´t find hyphenation patterns. I
assume that somewhere, LaTeX is sent to a false file. Could someone
help me?<br>
<br>
Many thanks in advance.!<br>
