Hi,

I compiled the latest trunk, open UserGuid.lyx, view->pdf gives me:

Error: Cannot convert file
----------------------------------------
An error occurred whilst running epstopdf
--outfile='16_usr_local_share_lyx16_doc_clipart_mobius.pdf'
'16_usr_local_share_lyx16_doc_clipart_mobius.eps'

I try this command in /tmp/blah and it works fine so I am wondering if
the latest systemcall changes have anything to do with this.

BTW, I can only get the full command using

Index: src/Converter.cpp

+                                               from_utf8(command)));
                                }
                                return false;

Why do we use substr() to avoid outputing the full command? The error
message is supposed to help us figure out what went wrong, right?

Cheers,
Bo
