I had a similar problem with LyX 1.6.7 on mac and Opensuse 11.2 (but not
on Windows 7). I can't remember the error exact message, but I upgraded
pdfpages to the latest version on both mac and OpenSuse and that fixed
the problem. Miktex on Windows keeps upgrading packages all the time
which probably explains why the problem never occurred on that platform.
