Ah I see. Would it be easy to give a lyx2lyx warning? i.e. is the complicated part detecting when there is a problem or fixing the problem? If detecting is easy, then it might be useful to give a warning. For example, I found the warning "Lyx2lyx knows nothing about module 'shapepar'" very useful because now I know that the problem is at least known. Also, this would help when diagnosing a problem of a user. Even if it's easy, if you don't think it's useful to spend time on it, let's skip it. I don't know anything about this stuff and am just throwing out ideas. Scott
