As Daniel said, the 'bundle' installer is no longer produced. We would be very happy to have a translation of this text: NOTE: Before you install LyX on Windows, you need to install a TeX distribution. For more information on how to do this, please see this page on the LyX wiki. I can add the links to it. Riki
Re: Lyx V2.3.2 - Issues with svgs snippets on Mac OS X
Anders, Stephen Witt mentioned that he was using RSVG-convert. So I installed, using macports librsvg. I did a reconfigure on Lyx, and now the svgz snippets show up. Don’t know why it is required to have this package, as Lyx should supply everything it needs to make all these conversions work. Just thought I would let you and others following this thread that this is what made it work (for me anyway).

Re: Lyx V2.3.2 - Issues with svgs snippets on Mac OS X
Anders, That is the configuration that I have — I have Inkscape installed, and this is the File Converter that is being used for SVG and SVGZ files. I ran Lyx in debug mode and I could see that there was some sort of a failure surrounding using Inkscape as the converter. As I understand it, Inkscape is installed as part of the Lyx installation, so I assumed that it is using its own local copy. Is there an alternative way to set this up so that another render engine is used that works? Thanks is advance for any advice.

I’m sure it worked for me in the past. So I gave it a try on Mojave and it works. Then I tried to break it and this is easy. My converter configuration does the SVG to PNG conversion with rsvg-convert because I’ve installed it from MacPorts. But the idea was to have a reasonable fallback for those not having it. It looks like not working anymore. I changed my system to make rsvg-convert unavailable and now I cannot display SVG anymore too. I’ll investigate the issue and report back.
