Apologies for bringing up this issue again, but I'm a bit confused. On
an intel machine, RedHat 6.1 installed the following teTeX RPMs:

tetex-1.0.6-7
tetex-afm-1.0.6-7
tetex-dvilj-1.0.6-7
tetex-dvips-1.0.6-7
tetex-fonts-1.0.6-7
tetex-latex-1.0.6-7
tetex-xdvi-1.0.6-7

After the installation I added the following sgml related RPMs from the
distribution cd and the RedHat powertools collection
(ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/powertools/6.1/):

sgml-common-0.1-6
sgml-tools-1.0.9-2
docbook-3.0-12
stylesheets-0.11rh-2
jade-1.2.1-6
jadetex-2.5-1

At this point, I was able to produce, LinuxDoc- *and*
DocBook-originating HTML, TeX etc. with commands like the following:

db2dvi  xarticle.sgm # (DocBook)
sgml2latex example.sgml # (LinuxDoc)

Next, I installed the LyX RPMs:

tetex-lyx-1.1.2-1
lyx-1.1.2-1

Now, LyX did find LinuxDoc, but *not* DocBook, as it reported in the
configuration file it generated.

Trying to change that, I attempted to upgrade to sgmltools,v2 with the
RPM

sgmltools-CVS19990807-2

from ftp://ftp.us.sgmltools.org

This was not allowed as conflicts were reported with packages
jade-1.2.1-6 and jadetex-2.5-1. Just for testing, I uninstalled the
jade* packages and installed sgmltools-CVS19990807-2. OK. After
reconfiguring, LyX saw DocBook but, rightfully, lost LinuxDoc.

One question is why LyX cannot understand that, although
sgmltools-CVS19990807-2 is not present, DocBook exists on my system.

Another question is if there is a way to convince LyX on that. What I
want is both DTDs present and working, with or without LyX, for obvious
reasons.

TIA
