Hi:
I take a long time without using /LyX/, but my package manager has
been updating lyx when new versions come out. Nowadays, I have
installed version 2.3.5.2 (OS: Ubuntu 18.04).
Today I tried to edit a file, with lyxformat 544, but /LyX/ tells me
a module is missing. Looking at the module dialogue I found that no
module is available.
I've checked that the standard module files are in
/usr/share/lyx/layouts, and besides them I have some other modules in
~/.lyx/layouts.
When I run /LyX/ from a terminal I can notice the following error:
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0xa9 in position
395: invalid start byte support/Systemcall.cpp (276): Systemcall:
'python -tt "/usr/share/lyx/configure.py" --binary-dir="/usr/bin/"'
finished with exit code 1
LyX: Done!
Finally, when executing *Reconfigure*, an error dialog appears with
the following message:
The system reconfiguration has failed.
Default textclass is used but LyX may
not be able to work properly.
Please reconfigure again if needed.
I've run *Reconfigure* several times, but the modules still don't
appear.Any leads on what's not going well?
Cheers

It would be nice to know if the alleged non-UTF8 character is in
configure.py or in some file it is trying to read.
I've attached configure.py from my system (Linux Mint 19.3). You might
start by comparing it to the one on your system (in /usr/share/lyx)
using diff, meld or whatever tool you prefer. If there is a
discrepancy, try reconfiguring using my copy.
The files are identical.
If there's no difference in the script files, I would suggest trying
to run the configuration script directly in a terminal (python -tt
"/usr/share/lyx/configure.py" --binary-dir="/usr/bin/"). If you get
the same error message, check ~/.lyx/configure.log to see if you can
figure out where the error occurred, and maybe post the log here.

There was a problem checking the layouts in ".lyx/layouts", since the
configure.log stops in the first module:
INFO: layouts/LB--AllowRaggedBottoms.module
Thanks very much,
Ramom
