It does show up in the log as detected and the language rules are loaded, but nothing happens to the actual layout, neither text justification nor hyphenation.
I am running all the latest jbpatch files as of 10 minutes ago.

this is the original mobi file, maybe you can find anything in there...

thanks a lot for all your work mate, i appreciate it a lot.

That said, I have downloaded it for testing purposes (yes, I have already deleted it again). After converting the book from mobi to mobi, the hyphenation does work, but the alignment doesn't. I don't know what the reason is, but it's probably due to the book itself specifying that the text is not aligned.

But I'm not an expert on mobi/KF8/epub formats, and I can't look into every single book... You may have more luck by asking in a book formats-related subforum about how to fix the alignment. Good luck
