If now taken a look at bug #36145 and they seem to have problem with hyphenation too. However, I have tried the suggested solutions in that bug
and they does not fix my problem so I don't know if the two bugs are related.
PS. I've tried
1) 'sudo fmtutil-sys --all'
2) dpkg-reconfigure `dpkg -l|grep ^ii|grep tetex|awk '{print $2}'|xargs`
3) The "sudo texconfig hyphen latex" trick mentioned by Julien.
Nothing fixed the bug.
