Ok, thanks. I use indeed a custom biblatex style: biblatex-dw. On my
system (Sabayon Linux, based on Gentoo testing), biblatex-dw is in the
package bibtexextra, which is from the 2012 texlive distro. Biblatex
itself is its own package, and installed version is 2.1-r1. 2.1 seems
to be from 2012 as well, but there is biblatex 2.2, too (not yet in my
distros repos).

Could those two version be incompatible? They seem recent to me.

Is it possible to install my own version (i.e. 2.2) of biblatex in my
home dir? How would I point Lyx to use it?

Many thanks again,
Christian
