This can be easily done. I did not do it because I believe that lyx should start with correctly-configured lst files. Using wrong lists that make lyx 'somehow works' makes no sense to me. Also, in my cases (one reported, one from myself), configure.py fails because it takes too much time so is brutally killed. In this case, no exception handling can help unless we first use default .lst file, and replace them with correct ones after configure is done correctly. Bo
