I'm closing in on it. All the intermediate files used in LyX's internal, menu driven PDF compilation occur in /tmp/lyx_tmpdir.J23191/lyx_tmpbuf0 so they're free to compare and copy. It turns out that using the internal compilation's .tex file, I can toggle the "no index entry in toc" symptom by either copying the internal .toc or not doing so. Since the .toc file is created by the first call to the latex executable, it's obvious that LyX internally calls the latex executable with different args or different environment variables or different config files or something like that. I'm going to continue trying to narrow it down. Thanks SteveT Steve Litt Recession Relief Package http://www.recession-relief.US Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/stevelitt
