Hi all.
Today I've seen the funniest bug in LyX:
I have a paper which uses natbib for citations. In my bib database, I
have an entry which says:
@ARTICLE{kageyama89,
author = {Kageyama, TarÅ},
title = {The Place of Morphology in the Grammar: Verb-Verb compounds in {J}apa
nese},
journal = {Yearbook of Morphology},
year = {1989},
volume = {2},
pages = {73--94}
}
Now, when I try to cite this paper, in LyX I see Kageyama (Yearbook of
Morphology), instead of the expected Kageyama(1989)
If I typeset the paper, the result is just fine, so the problem is
only with what LyX displays in the editor.
I thought there is something wrong with my bib database, but
everything was fine. WTF? And then it hit me: the word "Year" in the
journal name must be the culprit. Probably LyX interprets it as some
sort of keyword and displays that instead of the real year of
publication.
I played around a bit and my suspicion was confirmed: (i) removing
"Year" from the journal name produces the correct result, as does (ii)
changing the order between the journal and year fields in the bibfile.
This happens in LyX 1.5.3
