   Error: Conversion script failed
   ----------------------------------------
   /afs/inria.fr/rocq/home/imara/lasgoutt/dash.lyx is from a different version 
of LyX, but the lyx2lyx script failed to convert it.

The last sentence is what I get in a dialog box. Could I get LyX to tell
me that it is a _too_new_ version of the file format?


if (ret.first != 0) {

Alert::error(_("Conversion script failed"),

bformat(_("%1$s is from a different version"

" of LyX, but the lyx2lyx script"

" failed to convert it."),

from_utf8(filename.absFilename())));

return failure;


So yes, I suppose, if lyx2lyx were to return different error codes depending upon what the problem was.
