anything but a `long defeat' -- though it contains (and in
a legend may contain more clearly and movingly) some samples or

subscript package?

2017-04-01 Thread Matej Cepl

Hello,

another problem with my wife’s switching to LyX: with the attached test
document, I get LyX complaining about the missing package subscript (the
same happens when I try to process the generated LaTeX file, also attached).

When I look at https://ctan.org/pkg/subscript it seems to indicate, that
it should be completely unnecessary. Not even package fixltx2e
 (recommended by
http://wiki.lyx.org/FAQ/SpecialSymbols#superscript-subscript) seems to
be required these days.

So, I have removed in $EDITOR line \usepackage{subscript} from the .tex
file and run xelatex over it. And yes, everything was fine, subscript is
correctly displayed.

How to make LyX not to add that subscript requirement? Known bug (using
lyx-2.2.2-5.el7.x86_64)?

Best,

Matěj

Failed to generate PDF?

2017-03-03 Thread Matej Cepl

Hi,

my wife returned after many years to the academic work (after having
kids returning back to finishing her PhD) and so she started to write
some documents in LyX. However, when she tried to generate PDF for the
attached .lyx file (with .bib file generated by LyZ from Zotero
bibliography), the result was error. See also /tmp/lyx_tmpbuf0
directory on https://mcepl.fedorapeople.org/tmp/lyx-workdir.zip.

Using lyx-2.1.4-7.el7.x86_64 with TeXLive svn30088.0-14.20140525_r34255
on RHEL-7.

Anybody any ideas, what do I do wrong, please?

Thank you,

Matěj

a) either do terrible tricks described in the above link,
b) use better PDF viewer -- GSView 
(http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/gsview/index.htm) opens file RO 
and it is able to do the same trick as DVI Viewers -- 
actualizing view when PDF file changes.

Check that in your LyX document Layout/Document/Language/Encoding you have

\o{} instead of ? and \r{a} instead of ?.

Does it help?

This seems to me that you are using somehow incorrectly information in

That's what 'type' field is for. See this:

  author = {Truman Bewley},
  title = {Fairness, Reciprocity, and Wage Rigidity},
  institution = {Cowles Foundation for Research in Economics at Yale

  year = {2002},
  type = {Discussion Paper},
  number = {1383},
  url = {http://ssrn.com/abstract=348140}

Works like a charm for me (except that this whole reciprocity group of
people leads to nowhere for me, but that is not problem of LyX :-).

Check that in your LyX document Layout/Document/Language/Encoding you have
lain1. Alternatively you can type (in your .bib file) \ae{} instead of ?,
\o{} instead of ? and \r{a} instead of ?.

Does it help?

This seems to me that you are using somehow incorrectly information in
BibTeX database. Can you send please an example of whole BibTeX record? For
example, IMHO the author of the report shouldn't be an institution, but
some person. Institution is then just in the field institution of

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its

under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The
robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at

Well, then you should complain to the maintainers of your distribution --
Debian has it :-).

 Perhaps this should be included with LyX (and since there is already a
 menu hook to it) -- or is it already (though not in my distro)?

No, it shouldn't be certainly included in LyX. I do not think it is a good
idea to fix broken distribution by bundling it all together with LyX (have
you heard about do one thing, and do it perfectly principle?). Will you
expect LyX maintainers to maintain it, so they have something to do in
their plenty of spare time?

Moreover, chktex is so simple program that anybody could make .rpm/.deb out
of it. I did it myself (many years ago, when I was still with RedHat) as my
first .rpm package and even though I knew next to nothing about packaging I
did it in an hour or so.

 Incidentally, Matej, which Debian flavour do you use?

testing (soon to be stable, but I will probably keep with testing).

 I have a machine 
 running Debian unstable at work and keeping it up to date is, not
 surprisingly, a continual battle.

Unstable is really, well, unstable. With testing I am able to somehow work
over dial-up (that somehow is that aptitude update downloads 3MB+ of
data, and that sucks) with occasional taking notebook to some friendly
Internet cafe or university, when I want to actually upgrade (that could be
100MB+ of packages, especially when KDE is upgraded, which was pretty often
this year). If you have broadband at home, then I do not see any problem
with Debian/testing whatsoever. It is just six months of experience but I
have never experienced any hiccup with testing (and I know there were some
with unstable, even though it was kept slightly back, because sarge was
being frozen last year). It may get slightly wilder ride when unstable will
be open wide again and we could get some broken packages into testing --
but then certainly sid will be more broken then it is now as well, so eck
will be still much better choice IMHO.

 Indeed, it would be impractical to use 
 at home. However, Debian stable is, well a little to stable :)

I was able to work with Debian stable until the spring of this year with a
lot of backports http://www.backports.org and KDE backports, but when I
got a new computer, I gave up on that and have been using sarge since then,
and it serves me pretty well.

 I quite like the Fedora twice yearly update cycle, but also like Debian's
 you don't need to reinstall the entire machine, just update the packages
 as and when they are improved.

I do not know anything about Fedora (I gave up on RedHat when it was IIRC
7.0), but ability of Debian people to held whole distribution together so
well as they do never stops to amaze me (and the fact, that I do not have
to hunt packages all over the Internet anymore). And yes I am willing to
pay price in getting slower updates than rest of the world -- when it is
just slightly slower, not woody.

Except that chktex seems to be maintained (the latest Debian package of it
