But why, is it related to ImageMagic? Is it possible to run a debugger on the .lyx file to locate this kind of error in the future?
I only got the information by coincidence when LyX crashed. It could be very nice to be able to debug a .lyx file since I have no idea where in the LyX file to look (LyX don't report that anything is wrong unless it crashes it seems).
