Hi Matěj,

I haven't spent any time on your specific problem, but one possibility
to look into is font incompatibilities. For 9 months I needed to
compile my books on a Ubuntu VM because on my Void Linux Daily Driver
Desktop, my books wouldn't compile. Then one day, after seeing another
guy's book that had replaced Century Schoolbook New with (almost
completely equivalent) TeX Gyre Schola (serif), TeX Gyre Heros (sans),
and TeX Gyre Cursor (mono), I did the same thing, got rid of the "Use
non-tex fonts" checkmark, and bang, my books compiled under LyX.

Trying different main fonts on your smallest symptom-displaying example
might be a quick way to rule this in or out.

Anyway, \noautomath helps so I will stick to it.

For me it fails with xelatex on the cl as well, as expected:

This is XeTeX, Version 3.14159265-2.6-0.6 (TeX Live 2016)

Which command do you use on the command line? I bet you get the same
error if you run xelatex or lualatex (not latex or pdflatex).

As said, the error only occurs with with xetex and luatex, not with
latex or pdflatex.

The gb4e package, which is used in the document, makes the characters ^
and _ active in order to allow for quick sub- and superscript outside
math. This breaks with some packages, as well as with XeTeX and LuaTeX.

Add

\noautomath

immediately after

\usepackage{gb4e}

in the preamble.

Yes. Export the same way as you do manually, e.g. export with 'LaTeX 
(pdflatex)'.

Well, my original example didn’t seem that horribly large, but
here we are.

When running in LyX via PDF(xelatex), it fails (working directory
preserved again on https://mcepl.fedorapeople.org/tmp/lyx-workdir
.zip ), when I export to the LaTeX file and process manually with
latex and bibtex, everything works fine.

Any thoughts?
