for all of those who need a lot of packages for their docs,
it's still the same: you have interdependencies between the
different packages like this one has to be load before
another one. or this package doesn't work with that one
and so on ...
this is the reason why I always say: do not load too
much packages by default. especially for those stuff,
which is possible with a few latex commands.
I'll change my mind, if lyx gets it's own package
administration. So I have the decision to say if a
package should be load or not.
