Hi all, I've been trying to subscribe to the mailing list. I've sent four emails in total to lyx-users-subscr...@lists.lyx.org over the last four days, but only received one "confirmation" reply. I've checked my spam box, but nothing is there.
I replied to the single "confirmation" email five times in total as well, but received no reply. I also tried emailing lyx-users-h...@lists.lyx.org , but got no reply. Hopefully this email gets through to the list, but please cc: me directly. ========== LyX's pipes recently stopped working. I used to be able to open a file in an existing LyX instance with echo "LYXCMD:lyx-script:file-open:filename.lyx" > ~/.lyx/lyxpipe.in However, this no longer works. The command stalls, and the file is not opened. I confirmed the absence of pipes when LyX was closed, and the presence when it restarted. JabRef is also failing to push references to LyX, although it doesn't report any errors. I attempted starting LyX with `lyx -dbg 8192 filename.lyx`, with the following output. $ lyx -dbg 8192 filename.lyx 16:41:06 Setting debug level to 8192 Debugging `undo' (Undo/Redo mechanism) QSocketNotifier: Invalid socket 0 and type 'Read', disabling...

How can I get LyX's pipes working again? Arch Linux: up-to-date. LyX 2.1.4 from official Arch packages. Cheers, Pete.
