It seems that all exports using LaTeX fail (also DVI and Postscript). It would be interesting to see the reason (log) but I cannot reproduce with my Debian/stable texlive. I added a new clause in unreliable:varying-versions. > Also, our entry in unreliableTests is: > # seminar.sty uses Postscript specials or PGF > # -> wrong output with DVI and PDF (ps2pdf) (de-placed landscape > # slides). > export/examples/(|fr/)seminar_(dvi|pdf).* > The comment makes me think that we only expect wrong output with DVI and > PDF (ps2pdf). Am I interpreting that wrong or should we remove the ".*" > at the end of that pattern? The comment is imprecise. While DVI and ps2pdf are the export formats with most problems, no export format works reliably in all use cases. On the other hand, all export formats have use cases that work if the correct settings are used. The Appendix in examples/seminar.lyx lists details for on-screen viewing vs. printing of landscape slides, portrait slides, and notes. I changed the comment but we may also just remove the clause from unreliable:wrong-output. Günter
