Polyglossia (the xetex babelfish replacement) requires etoolbox.sty (provided by dev-texlive/texlive-latexextra) to run, but is not in xetex dependencies. If not emerged (by hand or pulled by texlive with extra use flag), trying to use xetex with polyglossia will fail. Happens in both texlive 2008 and 2009 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge texlive with xetex and without latexextra 2. xelatex test.tex Actual Results: mortagon@jotunheim tex % xelatex test This is XeTeX, Version 3.1415926-2.2-0.9995.2 (Web2C 2009) entering extended mode (./test.tex LaTeX2e <2009/09/24> Babel <v3.8l> and hyphenation patterns for english, usenglishmax, dumylang, noh yphenation, bulgarian, russian, ukrainian, ukenglish, loaded.
