Hi
I've just installed lyx 1.1.2 under Redhat 6.0
Because we use a central file server for all our s/w, I install using
./configure --prefix=/share/store/lyx-1.1.2 --exec=/share/store/lyx-1.1.2/linux
I then make some links to a common set of directories in everyones path etc.
The last version of lyx I installed was 1.0.3, and that has worked
fine using this scheme for months.
However, running lynx now I get the error:
"Lyx wasn't able yp find its layout description!
Check that the file textclass.lst is installed correctly."
and I get
"LyXTextClassList::Read: unable to find textclass file
`~/<unknown_path>'. Exiting.
LyXSetStyle: an error occured during parsing.
Exiting.
on STDERR.
The textclass.lst is in
/share/store/lyx-1.1.2/share/lyx/textclass.lst
so I'm not sure why that's a problem.
I looked in the mailing list archive, and found a thread which said
to check if ~/.lyx/textclass.lst was present. It wasn't (I moved
~/.lyx to ~/.lyx.orig when I first had the problems), so I copied it
across.
Lyx now fires up OK, but I get :
Error reading bind file:
Unable to open keymap file
on STDERR.
If I try to reconfigure (Options/Reconfigure), I get
sh: configure: command not found
on STDERR. I asume it is the
/share/store/lyx-1.1.2/share/lyx/configure that lyx is trying to run,
but adding that to my PATH still gives the same error.
The message referred to above also said that this could be due to
the Xforms library being linked against libc. However, ldd on the
1.0.3 binary and the 1.1.3 v=binary give me this:

Any help appreciated.
