Hello Gudjon, hello Andreas,
I'd like to get elyxer removed from Debian but to allow for that to happen I 
need to get
rid of ngspice dependency on it. The HTML export support in LyX improved a lot 
since
I introduced elyxer to Debian and is nowadays, while not that pretty, on par or 
even better
(as in more complete) then what elyxer has to offer. Also elyxer didn't receive 
any update
for a long time. I see at least some issue when I generate the ngspice 
documentation HTML
export with elyxer.

I've attached the debdiff of a potential NMU I'm willing to upload since I'm 
not sure how
active you're at the moment taking care of ngspice. So if you do not plan to 
upload ngspice
on your own soon and do not object to the elyxer removal itself, I can just 
upload my NMU.

Cheers,
Sven
