i dont have any fixed rule but there are latex packages which are basic and those which are more advanced. seeing your last additions my bell starts ringing that the border line was crossed. on many linux distros latex is divided on the basic packages and extra sets for advanced usage only - not installed by default and without any automatical setup on request like miktex on windows do. for example by simply checking $ texmfind lettrine.sty dev-texlive/texlive-latexextra [1 file] lettrine.sty Found 1 texmf file in 1 ebuild. one sees that extra set of latex packages is needed on my distro. it sounds wrong that building basic lyx manuals should require this and example file looks like better place. pavel
