Is there a way to do this update job from within LyX, or do I have to go down to the TeX utilities? > > My Tex Live Manager 2012 shows the newpx package, but this could be > because I have installed TeX Live 2013 in parallel. It could be possible > to install the newpx package via TeX Live Manager 2012. I'd be reluctant to try this on my Debian system. I could "cherry-pick" (as they say) the TL2013 packages from the, say, unstable or experimental repos., but that would mean _updating_ the whole TeXLive system. I have read somewhere that it was not recommended, because the directory structure has changed.
