Weird. This built fine in my sbuild environment for upload to the
archive, but is now failing, so looks like one of the deps has changed.
The failing build log includes:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/lyx/configure.py", line 1886, in <module>
ret = checkLatexConfig(lyx_check_config and LATEX != '', bool_docbook)

retval = processLayoutFile(file, bool_docbook)
File "/usr/share/lyx/configure.py", line 1316, in processLayoutFile

LyX: Done!
LayoutFile.cpp (172): LayoutFileList::Read: no textclasses found!
Error: Document class not found
and later:
Error: Cannot convert file
----------------------------------------
No information for converting svg format files to eps.
Define a converter in the preferences.
which implies LyX wants something extra now. Will poke.
