Yes. The information is outdated. You should use the ifpdf package, see http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=ifpdf. It would be great if you could update the manual with the new information and send a patch.
OK, I thought I'd fix some spelling and grammar problems while I'm at it. I've put up a patch at http://www.csse.uwa.edu.au/~john/Extended.lyx.diff.gz I also noticed that the LinuxDoc is really out of date, e.g. there is no-longer a straight "LinuxDoc" format but instead a "LinuxDoc article" and a "LinuxDoc manpage" format. The documented paragraph styles do not match either of these. E.g. there is no "LyX-Code" in either of these (Maybe the documentation means the "code" paragraph style). I don't use LinuxDoc, nor know how it is used, so I don't want to try to fix this. Should this be filed as a bug, or should there instead be a wiki page of outstanding documentation clean ups required? I was thinking that we could invite users to enable change tracking and send us fixed documentation, we could then review the changes and have a simple script that converts the change tracking into diffs. Perhaps I should write the script and a wiki page inviting contributions? I could do some form of review and convert the files to diffs, if it is not anybody else's job. -- John C.
