Hi!
Attached find a lyx2lyx for patch 1820. It's not perfect, though --- it
actually corrupts some files which shouldn't be changed at all; if
anyone wants to try and fix that, be my guest, I've just spent the past
six hours on this and I'm not sure that it's doable.
Also, this has only convinced me even more that it's wrong to apply a
lyx2lyx fix for this patch: this is a bug fix, there were previously
.lyx files which were ok, but which lyx was generating incorrect latex
for, and patch 1820 fixes that. If there are lyx documents out there
which patch 1820 affects, it can only do them good. All this lyx2lyx
patch does is to explicitly set the language to the wrong values in all
kinds of situations.
FWIW, I agree with you. LyX was generating wrong LaTeX code in those
cases and this should be considered as bug fix. IMO, it is laughable
requiring a lyx2lyx patch in order to perpetuate the bug.
+ ALOT.
