Hi !

I use LyX on a Mac and on a PC. I use the track changes function and would now like to include the changes in the output file (pdf). Unfortunately I don't manage to. The wiki page

http://wiki.lyx.org/Tips/ChangeTrackingLyx1-3-2

says one needs to install dvipost, which does not install on my Mac, and I don't have an idea of how to install dvipost on a PC. Any suggestions please?

When you try installing dvipost on Mac, do you get the following error (after ./configure, make, sudo make install)? --

/opt/local/bin/ginstall: cannot create regular file `/usr/local/gwTeX/ texmf.texlive/tex/latex/misc/dvipost.sty': No such file or directory
make: *** [install-data] Error 1

If this is what happens, you need to create the relevant directory that it says does not exist: simply enter (in the terminal)

sudo mkdir /usr/local/gwTeX/texmf.texlive/tex/latex/misc

(or whatever it is for your distribution of latex). Then you can do a "sudo make install" from within the dvipost directory, and it should work.
