Is this security measure sideeffect of ghostscript problems from last september? As far as I understood the total ban of conversions was just temporary measure which should be lifted once the individual CVEs were resolved. I believe both upstream and other distros already lifted it. > I am just writing this, so you are aware of this. I don't know a solution. In decreasing order: - Can't you just file suse-related bug to remove the ban? - Can't you pull/set different IM config iff lyx is installed? - Can't you trigger some message if lyx is installed so user is at least know how to fix it. If nothing of this work, we could add some note to our release notes that users of open suse need to fix IM settings. Pavel
