Russian packages support

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Creating new template latex document
2. Adding line "\usepackage[russian]{babel}"
3. Compile

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected: the same compiled template ("LaTeX is a document preparation system 
for the TeX typesetting program...")
I see: No text excluding \Latex{} and formulas.

Compiling with default LaTeX Lab compiler.

I think a missing font is the problem. I will be taking a look at this.

Missing fonts may be from cm-super package.
try building such file:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[russian]{babel}
\begin{document}
Привет, мир!
\end{document}

You may also try inserting bigger portions of text to test hyphenation.

Unfortunately the current environment lacks support for some fonts. If you'd 
like to 
help make these fonts available, basically here's what we're looking for. LaTeX 
Lab 
uses CLSI as the LaTeX environment which uses a chroot jail. You'll find the 
chroot 
available here: http://github.com/jpallen/latex-chroot

We need to take the chroot and add+configure the missing fonts. I will of 
course be 
taking a look at this when i'm able to, it's just a matter of bandwidth.
