Forwarding this to the list since I'm over my head here. Has anyone else
gotten these problems with the LyX revtex.cls (from the command line)? Or
does anyone (welcome back, Jean-Marc!) know what would cause it? (Serge, it
might help if you reminded us what your tex distribution is. But it might
not :)
As far as the requirement for hand-editing from style to class, as has been
mentioned it's not worth doing anything special because as soon as that lazy
good-for-nothing working on revtex4.layout finishes, it won't be an issue.

No, I can't create dvi anywhere. If I make TeX read the .cls file that
comes with LyX rather than the revtex.cls file that comes with most
Latex distributions, latex breaks with messages such as "Unknown option
`errorshow' for package `tracefnt' " and
"l.173 \DeclareSymbolFont

Of course, that's what I'm doing but I thought I'd let you know.
