Deprecated LaTeX hooks

[Basmah1961]

I get the following error when trying to use polyglossia with XeLaTeX

: Generic hook 'file/after/tracklang.sty' is deprecated. : Generic hook 'package/after/bidi' is deprecated.

Here is a code which illustrates the issue. This happened after update on MiKTeX on 8-Dec-2021. Switching to LuaLaTeX does not cause an error but causes the typeset text to overlap.

% !TeX TS-program = xelatex

I have fixed the warnings, but these were harmless anyway.

What do you mean by "XeLaTeX crashes"?

I get the following message

Error: Command crashed: xelatex.exe -synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode

It seems to be an issue with XeLaTeX itself rather than polyglossia package

[jspitz]

I think so, too. Let's keep this open due to the warning issues.
