That is normal. LyX supports many more classes than anyone would ever 
need and, more
importantly, than a standard LaTeX installation would install. So 
there's not really anything
more to fix, unless you want to use one of those classes. In that case, 
you just need to install

the relevant LaTeX files.

And actually, you can *use* the class within LyX. You just won't be able 
to compile.

I installed the .ppa as instructed on the lyx website, updated Synaptic and
indeed a newer version appeared. Installed the newer version, all ok.

But now when I open my colleagues Lyx file I get three errors instead of
one:

===
Due to some error in it, the layout file: could not be loaded. A default
textclass with default layouts will be used. LyX will not be able to
produce correct output.

The layout file: scrartcl could not be found. A default textclass with
default layouts will be used. LyX will not be able to produce correct
output.

The module basic has been requested by this document but has not been found
in the list of available modules. If you recently installed it, you
probably need to reconfigure LyX.
===

Also in Document / Settings I see: Unknown text class scrartcl. Actually
almost all of my document classes are greyed out now.

On my file system I find these two files:

/usr/share/lyx/layouts/scrartcl.layout
/usr/share/doc/texlive-doc/latex/koma-script/scrartcl.html


LyX is complaining that it cannot find the class file associated with 
this layout, which

is scrartcl.cls. Try running:
# kpsewhich scrartcl.cls
and see if you get anything. If not, there is some problem with your 
LaTeX installation

and we'll need to fix that.

If you do see it, then try running Tools Reconfigure. If that does not 
work, then you
may be running into a python incompatibility that we have sometimes seen 
on some

systems, and we can sort it out somehow.

These are more puzzling. It may be that you have the python problem, but try
reconfiguring and see what happens. It would be best to launch LyX from 
a terminal,
then Reconfigure, and copy and paste the output from that here, if you 
run into problems.
