Attached is a user directory. I believe I happened to create it from a
weird situation. Maybe TeX Live was half-way installed or something like
that. In any case, LyX won't compile to PDF with pdflatex when this user
directory is used. That's probably not too strange. But when I
reconfigure and restart, LyX still doesn't want to compile to PDF with
pdflatex. Note that LyX will compile to PDF with lualatex. The
configure.log contains the following:
INFO: checking for the pdflatex program...
INFO: +checking for "pdflatex"... yes
so I'm not sure why the button is greyed out.
To reproduce:
1. tar -xzf userdir123.tar.gz && lyx -userdir ./userdir123
2. Note that you cannot compile a simple "hello" document to PDF with pdflatex.
pdf viewer icon greyed out
3. Reconfigure and restart.
4. You still cannot compile a simple "hello" document to PDF with pdflatex.
Similar behaviour, but I can compile Hello after reconfiguration and same LyX
instance (2.3.2).
If I restart lyx with the userdir, the icon is greyed out again.
So reconfigure solves the problem if I keep on with LyX.
