Hi,
I have installed lyx 1.1.6fix1 on RH7.0
Trying to import and export files I have found that importing
doesn't work, the problem appears to be that the layout files
where installed into the wrong directory, see this :
===========================================================
$ lyx

============================================================
Seems like the layout files are in the wrong place the
make install command put the layout files in the
/usr/share/lyx/layout directory
they should be in /usr/local/share/lyx/layout dir which doesn't exist
Heres the fix: its worked so far, not sure if it alters anything
else.
cp -r /usr/share/lyx/layouts/ /usr/local/share/lyx
Is there a better solution?
