I just discovered that LyX 1.6.0rc5 will not import *any* of my older (1.5.x) LyX documents (lyx2lyx always fails). This is on Win XP. Is this something that's known (and hopefully fixed)?

I think we had another report like this, and I think it is fixed. Can you try running it from a terminal and let me know what the output is?

If I run 'python <path>/lyx2lyx ...' in a shell, the test file converts properly and there are no error messages. If I run LyX 1.6.0rc5 from a shell and try to open the test document, I get the following:

'import site' failed; use -v for traceback
