However, today in trying to use LyX:
the history:
==
1-under Debian lenny I upgraded to Lyx1.6.2 (using a debian Lyx1.6.2 package).
Running a document (koma book) I got this error:
GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1
dvipng warning: No GhostScript pngalpha output, cannot render raw PostScript
(this message is constantly repeated)
2-I was adviced to replace Ghostscript 8.62 by Ghostscript 8.64.
Since it was not available under lenny, I used Debian squeeze, but things got
worse because I muddled up my debian lenny linux.
3-Therefore I installed LyX 1.6.3 hoping that this would help. It did not. In
running my document I get again:
GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1
dvipng warning: No GhostScript pngalpha output, cannot render raw PostScript
GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1
GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1
dvipng warning: No GhostScript pngalpha output, cannot render raw PostScript
GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1
and after a long run lyx disappears and I get:
lyx: SIGSEGV signal caught
Sorry, you have found a bug in LyX. Please read the bug-reporting instructions
in Help->Introduction and send us a bug report, if necessary. Thanks !
Bye.
the situation:
I will now run it again under bug-reporting and report on it.
Before I do it I have tested the Introduction to LyX under help and get
wolfg...@wolfgang:~/Desktop$ lyx -dbg Intro-x.lyx
Setting debug level to Intro-x.lyx
GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1
dvipng warning: No GhostScript pngalpha output, cannot render raw PostScript
GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1
GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1
dvipng warning: No GhostScript pngalpha output, cannot render raw PostScript
GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1
GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1
dvipng warning: No GhostScript pngalpha output, cannot render raw PostScript
GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1
GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1
dvipng warning: No GhostScript pngalpha output, cannot render raw PostScript
GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1
In contrast to my document it stops putting out these errors (only those shown
above) and LyX does not break down.
There is no output in Latex protocoll. Where would I find the debug report?
the question:
is there anybody in the list who uses Debian lenny and LyX either 1.6.2 or
later svn versions successfully? Is she/he using Ghostscript 8.64 and from
where can I get a Debian package?
Thanks for your attention
Wolfgang
