Thanks! Then why didn't the same error show up on the first machine with also LyX2.1rc but TexLive 2010?
I'm actually leaning against fixing this duplicate entry problem from the source file: in scientific collaboration it is often that co-authors have duplicate entries from their own bib files. Merging them was so much easier prior to Lyx 2.1 Xuchen On Tue, Apr 8, 2014 at 10:49 AM, Jürgen Spitzmüller <[email protected]> wrote: > 2014-04-08 16:35 GMT+02:00 Xuchen Yao: > > Hi, >> >> I have multiple bibtex files included with the natbib package, some of >> them contain duplicate entries.
