Success!  I tried installing texlive-cprotect per @nealbecker and the problem was fixed.  Thanks to you both.

Just in case it's still of interest I ran lyx-devel -dbg graphics in the repaired system.  All earlier error messages are gone.  the only mesages now are similar to:

graphics/PreviewLoader.cpp (753): PreviewLoader::finishedInProgress(0): processing succeeded for pyth on3 -tt $$s/scripts/lyxpreview2bitmap.py --png "/tmp/lyx_tmpdir.CxxjlOzXElUM/lyx_tmpbuf4/lyxpreviewvmIpAu.tex" --dpi 200 --fg 000000 --bg faf
0e6 --bibtex="bibtex"


Jose -- let me know if I can help with further testing on F37.

Thanks again Jose and Neal for your help.

ose,

Here's my output from "Copy version info":


Version 2.4.0-beta2
(Sunday, December 11, 2022)

Qt Version (run-time): 5.15.8 on platform xcb
Qt Version (compile-time): 5.15.8
OS Version (run-time): Fedora Linux 37 (Thirty Seven)
Python detected: python3 -tt

Python --version gives "Python 3.11.1"

Also, I've tried running beta-2 from a terminal and I find that
"Error:
No DVI or PDF output. latex failed." is printed after each attempt to
preview by clicking in and out of an equation.
I am sorry for the slow responses still dealing with the last bits of
the first semester here.

First there is a remark that needs to be done. Since lyx-devel uses a
different configuration directory, by default ~/.lyx-devel, the
configurations are not synchronized with those used by LyX 2.3 (that
should be using, in general, ~/.lyx.

LyX has debugging options that allow a better handling of the several
internal processes.

Please, both to you and @Neal Becker, try to run LyX 2.4 from the
command line like this:

$ lyx-devel -dbg graphics

Is there any interesting bit in the console?

Best regards,
