I had deleted /usr/share/lyx (version 2.0.4) and /usr/share/lyx2.1
corresponding to ppa:lyx-devel/release and ppa:lyx-devel/daily
respectively.  Just now I installed lyx1.6 which I believe must be the
original version in the Ubuntu repository. It is working fine and a folder
/usr/share/lyx1.6 is has also been created.
