From http://www.lyx.org/Download, I downloaded ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/bin/2.0.6/LyX-2.0.6+qt4.dmg and used the MacTeX link to download MacTeX. Installation of both went without a problem. I'm running OS X 10.8.4 but the Gatekeeper wasn't a problem, although the web site says it may be.

Lyx appears to start and run without problem. I get a LyX window that appears to be waiting for me to select a document to open, or create a New document.

The problem(s) come when I try to access the Tutorial and User's Guide. I get a warning message similar to this: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/pm293kcbng0l3hs/zPnablGaEy

The link above says I need (I think) a file named book.cls before I can print the what eventually displays on the screen. Other files I get asked about are scrbook.cls, fancyhdr.sty, and enumitem.sty.

Questions:

1. Shouldn't these files be included in the .dmg file, and be installed where they belong? Could they have been left out by simple omission?

2.  Where do I find these files to install them?

After going through all the warning messages, the Tutorial and User Guide open fine.
