I just started testing with Mavericks and haven't seen any trouble with LyX.

Sorry, slightly of topic, but…
I don't want to upgrade to Mavericks because of the crippled Sync-Services.
With Mavericks one cannot sync it's iPhone via USB-Port anymore.
You have to use your iCloud account at Apple to sync your contacts and
calendars.
I didn't find any alternate solution.
I don't own any iOS devices, so syncing is not important to me. It also
means, improvements (which is a matter of opinion, of course) that helps
OS and iOS communicate is unimportant to me. The two Mavericks features
that interest me, the tabbed Finder and Tags, I already have in Mountain
Lion via 3rd party software. And, I've read elsewhere of
software/Mavericks issues.
So, I'm in no hurry to update, if at all.
All of you Apple users, you have no problem with this privacy attack?
Privacy issues are the reason I avoid any cloud involvement other than
web browsing as much as I can. That's limited to shopping, online
banking, and a Dropbox account where nothing personal is stored, no
backups, nada. I use it as a pseudo FTP site for large files rather
than try to email or "sumpin'". <G> My computers are networked, so I
don't need it for transferring data between systems.
