However, we could list the "internal" export options (pdflatex, latex,

Re: Cannot run LyX - lyx: symbol lookup error: lyx: undefined symbol: _ZN9QListData11detach_growEPii

2011-09-11 Thread alexandre . depouhon
Richard, Vincent,

thanks for your replies. 

Qt 4.7.2 is installed on my machine. 

I used the default configuration when compiling, i.e. I did not force the path 
to Qt4 with the --with-qt4-dir=/usr/share/qt4/ option suggested in the INSTALL 
file. As such, I am expecting the setup and the executable to catch the same 
libraries when run. Unfortunately it does not work.

Now, further digging in my machine configuration highlighted the unexpected 
presence of Qt libraries in /usr/local/lib. These are not 4.7.2 libs and 
shadowed the 4.7.2 ones. Having them set aside did the job: lyx is now running 
:-)

Thanks for the comments.

Alex

It looks like you're trying to run lyx with a different version of Qt
than the one which you used during building.

Hmm. I see the problem, and I think I see what's causing it. But right
now it's just a bug. The whole "word on the cursor position" thing is
broken. We'll get it fixed for 2.0.2.

Can you run LyX from a terminal? Watch what happens there when you try
to generate output. Does makeindex (or whatever) get run? Here's what I see:

Something similar should also be in the log, e.g.:

)

\@indexfile=\write3

\openout3 = `FregesTheorem.idx'.

This is starting to seem as if there's a problem with your LaTeX
installation. What OS are you on?

One is that LyX's XHTML and CSS output can be customized through layout
files, the way you'd customize anything else. Indeed, if you define a
new paragraph style, LyX will, by default, produce CSS that matches the
on-screen representation of the content. I think that also works for
charstyles, but I can't remember off hand. If not, I need to fix that.

There are other differences, too. E.g., LyX properly handles other
layout stuff, e.g., custom counters and cross-references to them. And,
though it wouldn't matter to you, I don't think, LyX's XHTML output is
as internationalized as its on-screen display. Of course, that's all
because LyX's output routines know everything LyX does.

Yes. It was new in 2.0.0.

Impossible, since what formats are available depends upon what
converters you have installed. Maybe there should, though, be a command
line option that would give you a list of these. Easy to implement.

Oh I get it. 

Actually, I am already subscribed to gmane, but didnt quite realize it was the 
same list, and so thought I had to sign up to the list in order to be able to 
post. I am not quite so perfect at the newslist game. 
It seems I can post/followup from gmane directly. great and thanks!
Opera is my newsreader, but I dont really want to use a newsreader either. just 
browse online, which I can do from gmane. So all good.

Anyhow thanks for setting me right. Needless to say, you're a pip.

(OK I know you've heard it before)

You might find convenient using news server (nntp) news.gmane.org, and

Re: Lyx 2.0.1 : Index errors

2011-09-11 Thread Pascal Francq
No errors in the LaTex output, and I have try to use the different index 
processors (makeindex, xindy and texindy) and nothing changes. I have try to 
reinstall Lyx 2.0.0, and the index still does not appear.  Can you provide me 
different parameters that appears in Tools>Preferences>Output>LaTeX.
I have also another strange problems : since years, I maintain a LyX file with 
acronym definitions that I include in my different lyx documents (using the 
"acronym" environment). Now, for some documents, errors "! LaTeX Error: 
Something's wrong--perhaps a missing \item." occur for each acronym added, 
while for other it works fine.
I try to remove my .lyx directory to see if it is related to the configuration, 
but both problems remain. Really strange.
I will try to use some backup version of files that weren't modify by LyX 2.0.1 
to see if it may be related to modifications in the file directly.

Yes. Rob taught me a lot about eBook generation, although at the time 
I didn't really fully understand (I still don't understand the 
translation from ePub to Kindle, iPad or Nook). For me, it became 
clearer once I actually did it.

What advantage would LyX's internal XHTML export have over eLyXer? 
Does LyX's internal XHTML export work with version 2.x? The man page 
shows the --export option but fails to list all the possible values 
for fmt. I'd like to see that list added to the man page.

Thanks
