Yes, and I do. But this will break compilation for everyone who installs TeX Live on Ubuntu from their package manager (apt). This is how many people do it. > The question is where we should draw the cutting line. I agree. Even with Georg's solution, we have to answer this. I don't know enough about this to have a strong opinion, so I'll be happy with whatever others decide. Should templates work for versions of packages that are 1 year old as of LyX's release date? It would be nice to have a rule so that we don't have to continue debating this each time. Of course, there could be exceptions to this rule. > In > LyX 2.1 we support many things that require TeXLive 2012 or newer. Take for > example the non-Roman language support.

It would also be nice to have as many features in the templates in order to show off what can be done in each of those templates. It's not clear to me how these priorities should be weighted. Scott
