Steve, I am not the one to make the fix, but I think you are right.
It _IS_ very helpful to get bug-info together with a hint what seems to be
missing.
As to the forwarding to developer-list, don't worry. They read the user-list
too.
Thanks for the report.

I am using US International keyboard. And here it works.
The lyx code looks like this:
\begin_layout Standard
eine
\begin_inset Quotes gld
\end_inset
Klammer
\begin_inset Quotes grd
\end_inset
\end_layout
As you can see, there is 'gld' and 'grd'. In order to match are both converted
to
'"' at search time. But this is done for advanced search only.

It should be a fix for the advanced search in lyx, not for the export.

The command I used was: $ lyx2.4 -userdir ~/.lyx.test -dbg gui The first thing I was asked if I want to create this new dir. (Since you did not mention anything like that, I suppose you are using an old userdir) The output was similar to yours (but without the xcb-error-messages) So I propose to try with a non-existing userdir.
