For some reason it seems that I left this unanswered. :-( The original files seems to be really truncated. If you look into a file from that time all of them end with... \the_end That is what the conversion step in 1.4 is complaining about. This files does not have that and so I assume that the problem comes from the time when the file was saved. I can recover what is there but that needs to be done by hand. PS: I noticed this thread when comparing the time spent by lyx2lyx based on the Python version used. In this case the result was converting the 2.3 User Guide to the 2.4 file format. Basically the last versions of python (3.11 and 3.12) run ~ 8 times faster than with python 2.7. -- José Abílio
