Thanks a lot Jürgen, that was it. For reference, it was
"texlive-lang-french" which was missing. After reconfiguring LyX,
everything is back to normal.

As of TeXLive 2013, babel core and babel language files have been split, and 
for some odd reason, many linux distros do not install the latter by default. 
So look for packages named "texlive-babel-french" or "texlive-lang-french" or 
similar and install them (and also the other languages).

Babel error since update

2014-02-28 Thread Daniel CLEMENT
Hello,

I had LyX slightly updated today as part of the Linux Mint Debian update
process. The version no. is 2.0.6 (as before I believe) but the package
no. is now 2.0.6-1+b1. But, at the same time, the whole TeXLive was
updated to 2013.

Now I ran into Babel errors when trying to compile documents that ran
fine before. The only workaround I've found is to set, under document
properties, "linguistic package" to "none".

Obviously, this is not satisfactory and there has to be a better way.

Below is a copy of the error I get. TIA for any help. Best regards,
