Hi,

I think I found a bug in lyx.

If you set the  LC_NUMERIC environment variable to de_DE (or anything with a 
different decimal_point like ',') lyx will complain when opening for example 
'dinbrief.lyx' (like in new from template):
        Warning: need lyxformat 2,15 but found 2,00
and garbage is displayed.

The file contains (imho correctly) 
        \lyxformat 2.15

The problem is (I didn't look at the source code) that you use a libc routine
which depends on the locale settings. But the locale setting where different
when the configuration was created.

Suggested solutions could be: Always set locale to C or POSIX before reading
the configuration. Or don't use libc routines for converting numbers.

I hope you don`t think I am impolite to suggest a solution without looking at
the source :-)

Feel free to contact me.
As I am not on the list please CC.

Regards,
Claudius
