[MiKTeX] Unfortunate addition of spanish-mx

[<lse...@ya...>]

Dear MikTeXers, (sp. mantainer):=0A=0A=0A=0AA few days ago, a new package c=
alled spanish-mx was announced on CTAN. =0AAs our mantainer always provide =
us with the best  and latest packages, =0Ait has  been incorporated into Mi=
kTeX repositories. But that package is =0Aonly for (some) people from Mexic=
o and last time I checked, spanish is =0Awritten (and spoken) in many other=
 countries.=0A=0AThe unfortunate effect (not to be charged to CS) is that n=
ow every time =0Aa document uses Babel with option "spanish", MikTeX thinks=
 that the =0Acorrect spanish is the one given by that package, and invites =
to install =0Ait (if that option is checked, if the option to "automaticall=
y install =0Amissing packages" is used, things are worse). Once installed, =
a file =0Acalled "spanish.cfg" (from spanish-mx) is loaded instead of =0A"s=
panish.ldf" (from canonical Babel). This is clearly a very unfortunate =0Ac=
hoice of the author, and the result is total havoc on your document.=0A=0AI=
've tried to delete the file "spanish.cfg" but MikTeX is aware and =0Aagain=
 tries to install it. I have only two (temporary) solutions: to =0A"not ins=
tall missing packages on the fly" (after uninstalling =0Aspanish-mx) or to =
copy "spanish.ldf" to "spanish.cfg" so the this is =0Afound before the "bad=
" spanish.cfg.=0A=0A=0A=0ANevertheless, I would recommend to delete spanish=
-mx from MikTeX =0Arepositories.=0A=0A=0A=0AThanks, best regards,=0A=0A=0A=
