Javier Bezos López submitted an update to the

                babel

package.

Version:  3.46
License:  lppl1.3

Summary description:  Multilingual support for Plain TeX or LaTeX

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 Changes in version 3.46 are described in:

 https://github.com/latex3/babel/wiki/What's-new-in-babel-3.46

 Here is a summary:

 - \BabelEnsureInfo now loads the basic data for the requested
   languages immediately (formerly it was done at the end of the
   preamble).

 - Fixes:
   - Getting rid of the hyphen in XeTeX was not working as
     expected. A new procedure has been devised.
   - tag.bcp47 now contains what its name promises, instead of
     just the language subtag (#70).
   - Locale info was not loaded if the name had uppercase letters
     in some OSs (#80).
   - The [..|..] syntax in ini dates didn't recognize 'digits'.
