           Product: lyx
         Component: program
           Summary: lyx includes doesn't work with sgml-tools (linuxdoc)
           Product: lyx
           Version: 1.3.2-2mdk
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: program
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Lyx is supposed to work with linuxdoc (see 
http://www.sad.it/~jug/lyx/lyxdoc/Extended/node34.html), and Lyx includes 
templates for linuxdoc_article and docbook_article. However, loading these 
templates fails when it doesn't find the right LaTeX classes. 
 
This is easily repeatable: 
 
1. Load Lyx 
2. File->New from Template 
3. Double click on "linuxdoc_article.lyx" 
 
A box pops up saying:  
Textclass error 
The document uses an unknown textclass "linuxdoc". 
-- substituting default. 
 
This also happens when selecting several other templates. 
 
It may be that these LaTeX classes are supposed to be included by another 
package, but if that is the case, I don't know where they would be: I have 
almost everything related to LaTeX installed on my system, as well as 
sgml-tools and a lot of the docbook packages.  
 
For some of the classes (i.e. the one for the IEEETrans.lyx template that also 
has this problem) there may be a problem with distribution because of 
copyrights.  
 
However, it seems logical that at least *LINUXDOC* should be supported 
out-of-the-box if sgml-tools and friends are all installed.
