User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:68.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/68.0
Steps to reproduce:
OS: Win 10.
Firefox: 68.0 (64-Bit)
I used German hyphenation library lang="de"
for hyphens: auto
.
Almost no words got hyphenated.
The library name in documentation:
"Hyphenation dictionary for German, Reformed Orthography of 1996 (de, de-1996, de-DE, de-AT, de-*)"
The library does work in Firefox version 67.
When researching, I found that lang="de-1901"
(an older German hyphenation dictationary according to the documentation) is working.
"Hyphenation dictionary for German, Traditional Orthography of 1901 (de-1901, de-AT-1901, de-DE-1901)"
I attached an HTML example displaying both cases; it is a reduced w3cschool example.
The Swiss hyphenation library seems to be similarly affected.
"Hyphenation dictionary for German, Swiss Orthography (de-CH, de-CH-*)"
Actual results:
German words do not get hyphenated correctly.
Expected results:
German words should get hyphenated.

I assume it's the same as bug 1566542 (duped against bug 1557291). It only happens on uppercase words, and it's been fixed in 69.

Right, that's what we're seeing here.
As a workaround, you can add a boolean pref intl.hyphenate-capitalized.de = true
in about:config.
