Hard to say without a MWE.

The problem is that checkModule() (in tex2lyx.cpp) does not check for
module requirements. It does read the module that provides a specific
layout, but not the modules that are required by it.

In the given case, this means that no LaTeXName is defined for the theorems.

The attached patch is a workaround, but of course this needs to be fixed at
the root, in the mentioned method.

Any takers?

problems with documents produced with earlier

[Michael Berger]

Hello dear Lyxers,

after upgrading LyX to version 2.2.3 opening and editing (linguistic) 
papers made with earlier versions of LyX does work.
Conversion to PDF of each single child document works as well. But 
trying to generate a PDF from the master document results in an endless 
loop.


Any hint as to what could be the cause?

The papers were made in Mageia 5, now using Mageia 6
