Hello,
I update several packages that in texlive provided for opensuse 11.0 are very
old.
This is why it can be dangerous to upgrade packages. In future, do them
one at a time. And the safest way to do this is not to overwrite the
older packages but to install the new ones in your local tree. Look at
the file texmf.cnf to see exactly where this is, but in my system the
main TeX directory is at /usr/share/texmf/; the "local" TeX directory is
at /usr/local/share/texmf/; and my personal directory is at ~/texmf/. So
check this out:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ ls ~/texmf/tex/latex/misc/
2in1.sty braket.sty godelnum.sty outlines qwertz.sty
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ ls /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/misc/
dvipost.sty linuxdoc-sgml.sty null.sty
envlab linuxdoctr-sgml.sty qwertz.sty
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ kpsewhich qwertz.sty
/home/rgheck/texmf/tex/latex/misc/qwertz.sty
Note how TeX automatically uses the package in my USER directory. It'd
use the local one before the system one, as well. And now if you have a
problem, you can just delete (or temporarily move) the newer packages.
When I finished and run texhash lyx (and kile) no run anymore.
I get:
Undefinid control sequence
Missing \begin{document}

How I can restore latex work without reverse to obsolete version of texlive
provided for opensuse?
Obviously, you have to restore whatever packages you changed. I'd guess
the simplest thing is just to reinstall texlive---the "obsolete"
version. But it's not really obsolete. Just some of the packages are
old. Then you can try---if you dare---installing the newer packages.
