I've tried my home windows PC (1.6.5) and my office linux pc (1.6.0) with the same results I cannot import Latex code into Lyx using tex2lyx or using File-Import-Latex (plain). Both give me problems. I've tried known working latex code on the Internet but that doesn't work either, so I don't think I have a bad input on my end.
Within Lyx, the version shows up as 1.6.0 while from synaptic package
manager the installation is package 1.6.4-1ubuntu1. The version information
on windows says 1.6.5
The error message from lyx is:
"An error occurred whilst running tex2lyx -f
'Latex_Output_for_Housing_Class_1.tex'
The error from the command line (tex2lyx -f
Latex_Output_for_Housing_Class_1.tex tmp.lyx ) is more elaborate but no more
helpful to me:
'import site' failed; use -v for traceback
'import site' failed; use -v for traceback

Segmentation fault
Attached are the two tex files I used as inputs.
Any advice on how to fix this problem or work around it? Thanks for the
help.
