There is now no preferences file in the Library->Application Support-

\format "pdf" "pdf" "PDF (pdflatex)" ""
\format "pdf2" "pdf" "PDF (ps to pdf)" ""
This also appears in preferences where I've installed LyX.app.
So may I suggest that if this is so wrong that the distribution
itself needs to be fixed, since I can guarantee that I had
nothing to do with these settings.
OK finally we have found the problem. You are absolutely right, this
should not be like that.
Bennett, could you please correct the installer?
Maybe this is also the reason for
http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2127 ?
Yes ... it appears to be my mistake somewhere along the line. But
those two lines have been in the LyX/Mac default preferences for a
while and haven't caused a problem before. Moreover, deleting those
lines from within the LyX.app bundle -- i.e., the default LyX/Mac
preferences -- does not affect bug 2127 substantially. (I'll post new
comments on bugzilla so we have them there: <http://bugzilla.lyx.org/
show_bug.cgi?id=2127>.)
