rotate-textures was there to assure that the genmisc-package was used which was once required by
powerdot. Attached a better patch.
The listingins-package is required to be able to compile the
powerdot-example.lyx file.

I added this now. We forgot btw. to check for the pfg-package that is required
by beamer.
I corrected all issues in the attached better patch.

Hi Uwe,

I have no idea regarding the license. If I can still also bundle it in
powerdot under lppl (I have no time to change it), you can bundle it
with LyX under gpl. Please let me know what your decision will be.
> - I will also include and maintain the powerdot-example.lyx to LyX, OK?
Ok.
Best regards,

I'll assured this:
Hendri wote:

in June and not

time to switch to

thanks and regards
