No "polish' option in babel

Post by Jan Borowiec »

I recently changed from Xubuntu to Linux Mint 20. After the change, I'm facing difficulties with the "polish' option in the babel package. Here is the minimum sample:

Code: Select all

Code, edit and compile here:
\documentclass[11pt,a4paper]{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[polish]{babel}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\begin{document}
MINIMUM WORKING EXAMPLE.
\end{document}

Here is the latex translation result:

Code: Select all

! Package babel Error: Unknown option `polish'. Either you misspelled it
(babel) or the language definition file polish.ldf was not found
.
See the babel package documentation for explanation.

Recommended reading 2024:

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

No "polish' option in babel

Hi Jan,

as it's a Debian/Ubuntu kind of Linux distribution, you could install the texlive-lang-polish package from the Linux (Mint) repositories.

Or install a current original TeX Live, version 2021 was just released this month.
