RE: [MiKTeX] File `german.idf' not found

Did you try to download isodate.ins from CTAN ??
Run latex on isodate.ins, and put german.idf in the right folder.

Asunto: [MiKTeX] File `german.idf' not found

Hello :-)

First at all: I've a work-around. So, that's just FYI ;-)

After running MiKTex Update Wizard and updating 5 packages
(miktex-zzdb1.cab, isodate.cab, aeguill.cab, hyperref.cab,
ltxmisc.cab), I encounter the message

! LaTeX Error: File `german.idf' not found.

when running one of my LaTeX-projects. The command issued is

C:\texmf\MiKTeX\bin\pdflatex.exe -interaction=3Dnonstopmode
$LaTeX-file

First, I've searched the file system for any IDF-file, but there
is none.

Then I took my standard preamble and commented everything
out -- that couldn't compile, of course -- and step by step in,
until I could reproduce the error:

\usepackage[iso]{isodate}

I've run 7 different documents with isodate -- error message as
above -- and without isodate -- doing well.

Therefore, I guess I could confirm a somewhat strange behavior
of isodate at least on my system after the update.

Here is a short document with my standard preamble:

\documentclass[
        german,
        halfparskip,
        headsepline,
        normalheadings
]{scrartcl}
\usepackage[automark]{scrpage2}
\usepackage{babel}
\usepackage{textcomp}
\usepackage{ae}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
% the point of failure
% \usepackage[iso]{isodate}

\begin{document}

\title{Title}
\author{N.N.}
\date{\today}
\maketitle

\tableofcontents

\section{This is a section}

That's plain text.

\end{document}

cya :-)
