If runnning in Terminal:

	kpsewhich language.dat

doesn't work, then your TeX setup is broken somehow. You should have  
a kpsewhich executable, and it should be either:

	/usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin-current/kpsewhich
	/usr/local/teTeX/bin/i386-apple-darwin-current/kpsewhich

Do you have any specific path setting, by the way? What does the  
following return, in Terminal:

	echo $PATH

Assuming you installed nothing else Unicky than TeX and friends,  
using i-Installer, the above should return something like:

	/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple- 
darwin-current:/usr/local/bin

DarwinPorts should add a /opt/local/bin somewhere, and Fink (I  
think) /sw/bin.

Regarding the file language.dat at /opt/local/var/db/dports/sources/ 
rsync.rsync.opendarwin.org_dpupdate_dports/print/teTeX/files/patch- 
language.dat, it means you have the DarwinPorts infrastructure  
installed (the file patch-language.dat belongs to the teTeX  
portfile), but not the specific teTeX port installed. Thus it should  
be harmless, I imagine.
