Hi Michael:
TeXlive can work because each is in a different folder and you are
the one you
decide on your route which you work (/usr/local/texlive/2013 or 2016).
I think that if you have installed an earlier version of lyx and
install later,
the lyx executable will be overwritten and the current work anymore.
You may install a more recent version of lyx and keep both version
running (the one which comes with your version manager and the one you
install yourself) by running ./configure with option
--with-version-suffix.
/usr/bin/lyx will call lyx-2.1 and /usr/local/bin/lyx-2.2.0 will call
lyx-2.2.
tex2lyx and lyxclient will be suffixed as well, and your local changes
will lie
in ~/.lyx and ~/.lyx-2.2.0
Thanks Jean-Pierre,
that explains precisely what needed to be done (in case) and how it
would function!
Your explanation adds to my very limited comprehension of such system.
Michael
