They don't (in general). And we should not require users to use the distro TeXLive, but of course it would be nice if the LyX package would suggests or recommend the needed texlive packages. > (I use "recommends" for everything lyx requires.

For advanced users it is quite common to use a more recent TeXLive than offered by the distro. > BTW: is there somewhere a list of packages supported and required by lyx? On the .sty level: Roughly all \TestPackage lines in lib/chkconfig.ltx. However, this list is supposed to be split up (see http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/9370). Georg
