Re: Class Loading Problem in Lyx 1.5.0rc2

[Michael Anderson]

I've been having this problem on the mac as well.  Near as I can tell  
it seems to be caused by Lyx not accepting the tex package lists from  
any directory other than the default texmf.texlive and texmf.  So if  
any packages are installed into the other directories created by  
gwtex (namely texmf.local and texmf.pkgs) then they will not be  
registered.  The quick fix is to get install all your special  
packages to the texmf.texlive directory and then do the texhash, this  
should fix the problem I think that this is a problem with the paths  
(in the Lyx preferences menu) but I have no idea about how to change  
it.  I do feel very strongly that this should be rectified before the  
final release, so we can keep our personal packages in the  
appropriate directories for updating purposes.
