Hi,

The faulty environment variable is LC_CTYPE. when setting this
variable (either directly or by setting the LANG) LyX doesn't handle
hebrew text  correctly.
Do someone now when lyx looks at the LC_CTYPE and what effect it has
when it's set in LyX?

Regards,
Guy

Hi,
I can confirm that the bug is related to the environment variable, and
especially the ones that relate to the locale settings.
I couldn't solve the problem with only unsetting the LANG but I solved it
when I unset all the locale related variables. As this is not a nice
solution I will try to find out exactly which enviroment variable is faulty,
and report back.

Thanks for helping,
Guy
