Did you ever have LyX installed / running before? I used it before, and checked my version, and I didn't get that. In my ~/.lyx directory I found a reference to "xdg-open" (in configure.log), which is part of xdg-utils.

I have; if you installed from the -current version, there may be differences. And if you mixed installs from different point in time of pkgsrc, that may also confuse things. > Thank youse. -Olaf. -- ___ Q: "What's an anagram of Banach-Tarski?" -- Olaf "Rhialto" Seibert \X/ A: "Banach-Tarski Banach-Tarski." -- rhialto at falu dot nl
