A safe bet is to require all the texlive packages. :-D Surely that is overkill, so we need to make a compromise. At each moment we need to establish some kind of threshold. And to be able to compile the User's Guide seems reasonable but I am open to other suggestions. We had a similar problem reported before https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1270566 -- José Abílio
Re: 2.3.0 installer test on Windows 10
Scott and Jose,
Installing texlive-babel-spanish fixed the problem. The user guide now
compiles perfectly under Fedora 27.
Jose: I personally don't require any Babel packages; this just came up
during testing. So no need to change the spec file, at least not for me.
Thanks!

Earlier Message:
I've installed and run the latest 2.3.0 installer from the FTP site on
Windows 10.
I've done 2 installations, both against TexLive 2017:
1. Windows 10 running natively on a new Dell laptop with Kaby Lake Xeon.
2. Windows 10 under Virtual box on a Fedora 27 host.
No problems or errors at all, either during installation, lyx program
startup, or compiling the User Guide. The generated User Guide PDF
looks OK as far as I can tell.
Separately, FYI:
I have also built and tested the 2.3.0 tarball under Fedora 27/Texlive
with QT 5.9.4. It builds and runs without error on my own documents.
However, when compiling the User Guide, it throws two errors:
1. "Illegal parameter number in definition of \captionsspanish" with the
Description:
}
You meant to type ## instead of #, right?
Or maybe a } was forgotten somewhere earlier, and things
are all screwed up? I'm going to assume that you meant ##.
and:
2. "Package babel Error: You haven't defined the language spanish yet."
with the Description:
\selectlanguage{spanish}
%
Your command will be ignored, type to proceed
These errors appear to be triggered in Section 3.9.2 on the line: "Les
incises - même si tout le monde ne les aime pas – sont très utiles."
Yes, that's French, not Spanish.
After clicking "Show Output Anyway" the PDF compiles without further
error and the affected lines in Section 3.9.2 appear normal.
Am I missing some package from Texlive?
Hope this helps. In any case, thanks to you all for your hard work on
this release!

Probably you are missing the babel packages: You can install them as texlive-babel-spanish (or what is equivalent tex- babel-spanish). Probably we could add the tex-babel* as either a requirement or suggestion in the Fedora spec file. The issue and is that I would have to specify each on individually. Regards, -- José Abílio

2.3.0 installer test on Windows 10
Sorry, Scott. I first sent this to your own email by mistake. Re-sending
to the list.
I've installed and run the latest 2.3.0 installer from the FTP site on
Windows 10.
I've done 2 installations, both against TexLive 2017:
1. Windows 10 running natively on a new Dell laptop with Kaby Lake Xeon.
2. Windows 10 under Virtual box on a Fedora 27 host.
No problems or errors at all, either during installation, lyx program
startup, or compiling the User Guide. The generated User Guide PDF
looks OK as far as I can tell.

Am I missing some package from Texlive?
Hope this helps. In any case, thanks to you all for your hard work on
this release!
