Re: RCS on Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks with Xcode 5.1 doesn't work

2013-11-11 Thread Alex Liberzon

Thanks, 

So the solution for Mac OS X Mavericks with Xcode 5 that doesn’t include RCS 
anymore is to download the GNU-RCS from this site: 

https://code.google.com/p/rudix-mountainlion/downloads/detail?name=rcs-5.9.0-0.pkg


and using Control-Click option, open and install the RCS.  Lyx version control 
works back for me. 

Best regards,
Alex

 Hi, 
 
 After few failures to use RCS on Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks, 
 I found on the Xcode release notes 
 https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/releasenotes/DeveloperTools/RN-
 Xcode/#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40001051-SW241
 
 this statement: 
 The CVS and RCS source control tools have been removed from Xcode 5. 11968433
 
 Removing CVS and RCS control from Xcode doesn't imply it's removed from LyX.
 
 Does anybody know how to get those working back? 
 
 You have to provide the cvs and rcs executables to get it working.
 Perhaps you miss these command line tools now after going to 10.9 + Xcode 5.
 
 Isn't it about time to use Git for Lyx? 
 Does anyone know how to use Git from Lyx 
 ( I know how to use it in the command line)
 
 
 It's supported with the upcoming LyX-2.1 release.

 Stephan

Package babel Error: Unknow option `ngerman'

2013-11-11 Thread Wolfgang Engelmann

Starting lyx gives me this warning on the terminal. Is it something to

more serious:
if I try to export a pdf output from my document, I get

 and no output.

I use lyx 2.0.6-1+b1 and texlive 2013 under Debian

In the internet I found 

I solve my problem installing all the complements of Texlive from Synaptic
Package manager, to  my computer with Ubuntu 13.10
When I upgrade from Ubuntu 13.04 the newest version of Texlive was
installed but not the language complements and other programs, then
systematic errors araised.
What is meant with all the complements?
In synaptic there is no texlive-lang all under 2013, whereas it is under 2012.
Can I use the 2012 or what would you recommend?

Perhaps instead of trying to install all languages, just install those 
you want to use.  Install them before you install LyX, maybe.


Actually, though, why you can't install all languages is somehow a fault 
of either the package maintainer, or the archive you are using.  What 
came after where you cut this off?  Did it say why it was not going to 
install the Latvian package?  Maybe the file wasn't found?

LyX label and reference problem - Faulty pdf

2013-11-11 Thread Mark Mandelkern



LyX label and reference problem - faulty pdf

This is about internal labels and references, as for theorem
numbers and section numbers, not about the references at
the end of a paper.

These numbers should appear in an exported pdf, but
at times the pdf will have only   ??   instead of the
numbers, at more than a hundred places. The labels
appear, but not the references. Thus, the exported
pdf is useless.

Program restart does not help. Computer restart does
not help. The only solution I have found is a complete
reinstall of the program, including MikTek. And even
then, it is necessary to go back to a previous saved
draft, and re-enter many updates. Sometimes
a day's work. Sometimes a crucial line is lost.

Is there a cure for this serious malfunctioning?

Doesn't this suggest that the problem is with MikTeX? Why do you think
it is a LyX issue? I really have no idea and it could still be a LyX
issue (maybe LyX triggers something when a new MikTeX installation is
found), but I'm curious on your thoughts.

Hi Bart,

More information would be useful. How did you upgrade? Did you upgrade
in Ubuntu? Or by upgrade do you mean you did a clean install of
13.10 (in which case the fact that you upgraded from 13.04 or
whichever version is irrelevant)?

You have enchant installed, but what settings do you have under Tools
 Preferences  Language Settings  Spellchecker?

You mentioned that *dutch* spell checking does not work. Does spell
checking in other languages work?

I'm confident we can get your spell checking up and running as I've
had good experience (in various languages) on Ubuntu.

 Upgrade initially was just upgrading through the ubuntu-tools, apt-get

 because xfce doesn't fit my needs.

 My home dir is a seperate partition, so I don't have to move it all on each

(a difference on the system could have lead to a reconfigure in some

 Spellcheck notes and comments: on

 When pressing F7 (Spell checker) I get the message: Spell checker has no

 In Document settings the Language is set to

The spell checker uses the language of your text automatically.

You have to set your document language to Dutch or mark your text with Dutch 
language.
So you can mix languages easily and spell checking is done with the appropriate 
dictionaries.

So the solution for Mac OS X Mavericks with Xcode 5 that doesn’t include RCS 
anymore is to download the GNU-RCS from this site: 

https://code.google.com/p/rudix-mountainlion/downloads/detail?name=rcs-5.9.0-0.pkg

 Removing CVS and RCS control from Xcode doesn't imply it's removed from LyX.
 
 Does anybody know how to get those working back? 
 
 You have to provide the cvs and rcs executables to get it working.
 Perhaps you miss these command line tools now after going to 10.9 + Xcode 5.
 
 Isn't it about time to use Git for Lyx? 
 Does anyone know how to use Git from Lyx 
 ( I know how to use it in the command line)
 
 
 It's supported with the upcoming LyX-2.1 release.

Perhaps instead of trying to install all languages, just install those 
you want to use.  Install them before you install LyX, maybe.


Actually, though, why you can't install all languages is somehow a fault 
of either the package maintainer, or the archive you are using.  What 
came after where you cut this off?  Did it say why it was not going to 
install the Latvian package?  Maybe the file wasn't found?

LyX label and reference problem - Faulty pdf

2013-11-11 Thread Mark Mandelkern



LyX label and reference problem - faulty pdf

This is about internal labels and references, as for theorem
numbers and section numbers, not about the references at
the end of a paper.

These numbers should appear in an exported pdf, but
at times the pdf will have only   ??   instead of the
numbers, at more than a hundred places. The labels
appear, but not the references. Thus, the exported
pdf is useless.

Program restart does not help. Computer restart does
not help. The only solution I have found is a complete
reinstall of the program, including MikTek. And even
then, it is necessary to go back to a previous saved
draft, and re-enter many updates. Sometimes
a day's work. Sometimes a crucial line is lost.

Is there a cure for this serious malfunctioning?

Doesn't this suggest that the problem is with MikTeX? Why do you think

Hi Bart,

More information would be useful. How did you upgrade? Did you upgrade
in Ubuntu? Or by upgrade do you mean you did a clean install of
13.10 (in which case the fact that you upgraded from 13.04 or
whichever version is irrelevant)?

You have enchant installed, but what settings do you have under Tools
 Preferences  Language Settings  Spellchecker?

You mentioned that *dutch* spell checking does not work. Does spell
checking in other languages work?

I'm confident we can get your spell checking up and running as I've
had good experience (in various languages) on Ubuntu.

 Upgrade initially was just upgrading through the ubuntu-tools, apt-get
 do-upgrade (or something similar), but I've had quite some issues, so I then
 did a fresh install of ubuntustudio 13.10, added kubuntu through synaptic,
 because xfce doesn't fit my needs.

 My home dir is a seperate partition, so I don't have to move it all on each
 fresh install, just mount the same drive as /home, so I guess the config
 files of my previous installation should be the same.

The config files of LyX are in ~/.lyx so perhaps they did not change
(a difference on the system could have lead to a reconfigure in some
cases I think though).

 When pressing F7 (Spell checker) I get the message: Spell checker has no
 dictionaries

 In Document settings the Language is set to
 Dutch,
 encoding: Language Default,
 Language package: now set to 'always babel' because I've tried them all, and
 none seemed to work.

 I hope it already shows an error in my configuration.

I'm hoping that doing Tools  Reconfigure will fix this. My guess is
that LyX doesn't know where the spelling libraries are since the
system changed. Does that work?

I'm sorry, I did intend to reply to the list, but gmail has different
defaults then what people want of course.

reconfigure doesn't do any better. I deleted the config file in .lyx
directory, didn't help either.

In  language Settings - Language
I have now 'Dutch' as user interface language, but it remains English
anyway...
Language package: Automatic
Command start: \selectlanguage{$$lang}

Do I have to replace 'lang' with 'nl' or 'dutch'? I expect it should stay
'lang', as a variable, set by the language package.

The spell checker uses the language of your text automatically.

You have to set your document language to Dutch or mark your text with Dutch 
language.
So you can mix languages easily and spell checking is done with the appropriate 
dictionaries.

Re: RCS on Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks with Xcode 5.1 doesn't work

Thanks, 

So the solution for Mac OS X Mavericks with Xcode 5 that doesn’t include RCS 
anymore is to download the GNU-RCS from this site: 

https://code.google.com/p/rudix-mountainlion/downloads/detail?name=rcs-5.9.0-0.pkg


and using Control-Click option, open and install the RCS.  Lyx version control 
works back for me.

Package babel Error: Unknow option `ngerman'

2013-11-11 Thread Wolfgang Engelmann

Starting lyx gives me this warning on the terminal. Is it something to 
bother about?

 Fontconfig warning: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/65-droid-sans-fonts.conf", line 103:

expected
Fontconfig warning: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/65-droid-sans-fonts.conf", line 138: 
Having multiple values in  isn't supported and may not work as

more serious:
if I try to export a pdf output from my document, I get

! Package babel Error: Unknow option `ngerman'. Either you misspelled it
(babel)or the language definition file ngerman.ldf was not 
found.

 and no output.

I use lyx 2.0.6-1+b1 and texlive 2013 under Debian

In the internet I found 

I solve my problem installing all the complements of Texlive from Synaptic
Package manager, to  my computer with Ubuntu 13.10
When I upgrade from Ubuntu 13.04 the newest version of Texlive was
installed but not the language complements and other programs, then
systematic errors araised.
What is meant with "all the complements"?
In synaptic there is no texlive-lang all under 2013, whereas it is under 2012.
Can I use the 2012 or what would you recommend?

I guess it's the same problem others mentioned already on this list:
It looks like the package dependencies of "modern" Linux systems doesn't 
include the language packages of TeX-Live anymore.

Please check if you have the needed language packs of TeX-Live installed.

Editing the LyX files manually seems like a very fragile option to solve this.

The condition should rather be: 

If you plan to typeset German documents or mixed-language documents
containing German parts, install texlive-lang-german.

This is only an option, if the use of "ngerman" is not intended and there is
no German text in the document.

I guess I need texlive-lang-all
which is not in the texlive 2013 of synaptic, but in texlive 2012

If I select this for installation, synaptic is going to remove a lot of 
texlive and other stuff, which I hesitate to do.
 
If I try to install texlive-lang-all by apt-get install,
I get

root@wolfgang:/home/we# apt-get install texlive-lang-all
Paketlisten werden gelesen... Fertig
Abhängigkeitsbaum wird aufgebaut.   
Statusinformationen werden eingelesen Fertig
Einige Pakete konnten nicht installiert werden. Das kann bedeuten, dass
Sie eine unmögliche Situation angefordert haben oder, wenn Sie die
Unstable-Distribution verwenden, dass einige erforderliche Pakete noch
nicht erstellt wurden oder Incoming noch nicht verlassen haben.
Die folgenden Informationen helfen Ihnen vielleicht, die Situation zu 
lösen:

Die folgenden Pakete haben unerfüllte Abhängigkeiten:
 texlive-lang-all : Hängt ab von: texlive-lang-latvian (>= 2012.20120516) 
soll aber nicht installiert werden
and so on in a long list


what to do??

I guess I need texlive-lang-all

which is not in the texlive 2013 of synaptic, but in texlive 2012

If I select this for installation, synaptic is going to remove a lot 
of texlive and other stuff, which I hesitate to do.

If I try to install texlive-lang-all by apt-get install,

I get

root@wolfgang:/home/we# apt-get install texlive-lang-all

Perhaps instead of trying to install all languages, just install those 
you want to use.  Install them before you install LyX, maybe.

Actually, though, why you can't install all languages is somehow a fault 
of either the package maintainer, or the archive you are using.  What 
came after where you cut this off?  Did it say why it was not going to 
install the Latvian package?  Maybe the file wasn't found?

LyX label and reference problem - Faulty pdf

2013-11-11 Thread Mark Mandelkern



LyX label and reference problem - faulty pdf

This is about internal labels and references, as for theorem
numbers and section numbers, not about the references at
the end of a paper.

These numbers should appear in an exported pdf, but
at times the pdf will have only   ??   instead of the
numbers, at more than a hundred places. The labels
appear, but not the references. Thus, the exported
pdf is useless.

Program restart does not help. Computer restart does
not help. The only solution I have found is a complete
reinstall of the program, including MikTek. And even
then, it is necessary to go back to a previous saved
draft, and re-enter many updates. Sometimes
a day's work. Sometimes a crucial line is lost.

Is there a cure for this serious malfunctioning?

Mark

Can you send (to the list) a minimal working example?

Doesn't this suggest that the problem is with MikTeX? Why do you think
it is a LyX issue? I really have no idea and it could still be a LyX
issue (maybe LyX triggers something when a new MikTeX installation is
found), but I'm curious on your thoughts.

spell check (again)

2013-11-11 Thread bart deruyter

Hi all,

I've upgraded to kubuntu 13.10 and can't get my dutch spell checking to
work in Lyx. It seems to be an issue after each setup I do, though usually
I find what I need, but now I don't.

Enchant is installed, myspell-nl too, something specifically I've got to do
in lyx?

thanks in advance,

Bart

Hi Bart,

More information would be useful. How did you upgrade? Did you upgrade
in Ubuntu? Or by "upgrade" do you mean you did a clean install of
13.10 (in which case the fact that you "upgraded" from 13.04 or
whichever version is irrelevant)?

You have enchant installed, but what settings do you have under Tools
> Preferences > Language Settings > Spellchecker?

You mentioned that *dutch* spell checking does not work. Does spell
checking in other languages work?

I'm confident we can get your spell checking up and running as I've
had good experience (in various languages) on Ubuntu.

Best,

Scott

The config files of LyX are in ~/.lyx so perhaps they did not change
(a difference on the system could have lead to a reconfigure in some
cases I think though).

I'm hoping that doing Tools > Reconfigure will fix this. My guess is
that LyX doesn't know where the spelling libraries are since the

I'm sorry, I did intend to reply to the list, but gmail has different
defaults then what people want of course.

reconfigure doesn't do any better. I deleted the config file in .lyx
directory, didn't help either.

In  language Settings -> Language
I have now 'Dutch' as user interface language, but it remains English
anyway...
Language package: Automatic
Command start: \selectlanguage{$$lang}

Do I have to replace 'lang' with 'nl' or 'dutch'? I expect it should stay
'lang', as a variable, set by the language package.

Bart

The spell checker uses the language of your text automatically.

You have to set your document language to Dutch or mark your text with "Dutch" 
language.
So you can mix languages easily and spell checking is done with the appropriate 
dictionaries.
