You'll probably have trouble installing any package, not just LyX.
Something went amiss with the libreoffice builds. Either remove the
offending packages, or try to update 'apt' and then upgrade the
package (assuming updates are available).

Re: Missing icons after upgrading to LyX 2.2.0

[John Kane]

I don't know what I had running but I did a shut-down before going shopping
and after a reboot and something is happening. Thanks

 My problem is that I removed libreOffice to install Apache OpenOffice so I
don't really under stand what the output is telling me. Why would a removal
of LyX depend on some missing LibreOfice files?

This happens if at the same time some other package management tool is 
running and holds a lock on the database. Assuming that you don't do that 
yourself, the most likely reason is an automatic 'apt-get update' running in 
the background from cron. You would see the process in the output of

ps -axu | grep root

and usually it would not take long to be finished, so you could try again.

"Never seen such a case."
Reminds me of the time the doctor checking the internet when I was seeing
him :)

john@john-K53U:~$ sudo apt-get check
[sudo] password for john:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done


Somehow I was expecting something a bit more dramatic.

Synaptic is reporting 0 broken packages.

What would you think of burning a new CD of Ubuntu 16.04 and doing a new
clean install?

Re: Missing icons after upgrading to LyX 2.2.0

[John Kane]

I was tired and hungary when I did it, and while I remember using a
terminal command, I have not the slightest memeory of how I did it.

Exactly how would I check?

So far this morning I have tried something like
apt-cache showpkg qt4  (& qt4.5, 4.6 and so on ) and get nothing


 apt-cache showpkg qt5.6 gets a hit even though I thought I'd removed it.

I read the Release Notes and originally thought that installing qt5.6 would
be a good idea and then read what seemed to be some caveats  that seemed to
suggest that installing qt5.6 after installing LyX2.2.0 might cause
problems. So I thought I'd better get rid of it.

A quick look at /usr/share/  shows I have both qt4 and qt5 (apparently
qt5.6 since that is the folder label and the name I used in the apt-get
install command

I am not exacty Linux fluent. (I possibly speak pidgin Linux?) Can someone
provide detailed instructions or a pointer to a decent cheatsheet that
would show me how to figure out what version of qt LyX is using please?

Thanks for all the help and support.

You got it Kornel.

I installed libqt4-svg and I have my icons.

Slightly weird set of colours on the splash screen but I can live with that.

My thanks to both of you for the help and advice.

John, you are on Ubuntu 16.04 and you have Qt 4.5? How did you do that?
Why do you think your Qt version is 4.5? Does LyX tell you that or
apt-cache policy?

I hope we can figure this out for you,

Scott

Good.

4.5 is really old, and although LyX should work with it in principle it is 
not well tested. Somehow I cannot believe that the ppa contains packages for 
such an old version, but Liviu will know more.

On ubuntu you would have to install package "libqt4-svg" too. Something 
appropriate on your system should do.

I installedl from what I believe is a prepackaged binary from Liviu
Andronic's  stable PPA 
which I have used before.

My installed version of qt is qt4.5 which if I am reading the release notes
correctly should be okay.

Thanks

LyX 2.2.0 requires a qt with SVG support compiled in (as mentioned in 
RELEASE_NOTES). This looks like your qt does not have proper SVG support. 
Which qt version are you using? Did you compile from source or install some 
prepackaged binary?
