Think so, eh? I confirmed that dvipost is gone -- Synaptic shows the package uninstalled and 'kpsewhich dvipost' returns nothing. I reconfigured and restarted LyX again just to make sure. Then I opened the document and exported to LaTeX (plain) ... and got exactly the same .tex file I previously provided. (I ran them through meld and it confirmed they're identical.) Apparently LyX 2.1.4 is going to use dvipost whether I have it or not. (Either that's a bug or dvipost is the only way to show changes in plain LaTeX. I'm guessing the former.) > > Sorry to put you through several iterations of this but after one more > round we should know whether the problem is that LyX is producing bad > .tex for you or the .tex code is good but something goes wrong with the > compilation. No problem; I'm the one that started this in the first place. :-( Paul
