José, are you reading us?
Yes. Using gdb. :-) The instructions are more or less the following from the command line: $ gdb /usr/bin/lyx ... (gdb) run That is, after you get the gdb prompt (gdb) enter run That will get lyx running. After lyx crashes you will get back to the gdb prompt additionally with further information, like: Missing separate debuginfos, use: dnf debuginfo-install OpenEXR- libs-2.2.0-15.fc29.x86_64 ... That part is specific to Fedora it tells how to install the debuginfo packages. As root run the command described above: # dnf debuginfo-install OpenEXR-libs-2.2.0-15.fc29.x86_64 ... Repeat again the same procedure, starting by entering run in the gdb prompt and when lyx crashes in the gdb backtrace enter bt (abbreviation for backtrace). That will give the full backtrace together with the debug information. > > Then I am stuck if I want to recover.
