Hi, Is there any reason for which the format of preference files (site.bind, cua.bind, default.ui, etc.) is not matching that of the current LyX version. This is a problem since it prevents LyX from starting properly (no menus on OS X at least) if the python script pref2pref fails to run. At least, updating the files to the current LyX format would ensure that no pref2pref is called at startup (at least the first one) and gives a chance to the user to get access to the preferences and to reconfigure LyX.
