I deleted my local LyX repository and cloned it again from Git. Now LyX works again. I should have tried that before.
Stephan, I have seen that you are one of the co-authors of the INSTALL.MacOSX file. This file contains a lot of information for older systems. Have you ever considered to update the document to cover current machines and newer Qt and macOS versions? That's the way it currently works for me (on macOS 13.0 Beta 5 Ventura on both platforms, AMD64 and ARM64): - Qt6, automake, gettext, and pkgconfig are installed with Homebrew. - LyX is cloned from Git. - Cd into LyX folder. ./autogen.sh ./configure \ --with-version-suffix=-2.4 \ --prefix=/Users/chris/Desktop/LyX.app \ --with-x=no \ --disable-stdlib-debug \ --with-included-hunspell \ --with-libiconv-prefix=/usr \ --enable-qt6 \ --with-macos-deployment-target=12.0 make -j8 && make install-strip Chris > Am 13.08.2022 um 09:37 schrieb Stephan Witt <[email protected]>: > > Am 13.08.2022 um 09:26 schrieb Christoph Schmitz <[email protected]>: >> >> Since a few days I get the following error message when starting a newly >> compiled version of LyX: >> >> Unable to determine the system directory having searched >> /Users/chris/Desktop/LyX.app/Contents/Resources/ >> Use the '-sysdir' command line parameter or set the environment variable >> LYX_DIR_24x to the Lyx system directory containing the file "chkconfig.Itx'. >> >> The contents of the folder ./LyX.app/Contents/Resources/ is completely >> different when compared with the contents of the last working version.
