I also do not have a good solution to this conundrum. A possible option would be to add a note to release notes stating that this only occurs for old versions of dvipng. I know that most of the time we do not read the release notes but at least this is documented somewhere. If we add this to code, as you said, this should be heavily commented or else the code will become there when it is an archaeological curiosity. :-) Thank you for working on this. :-) -- José Abílio -- lyx-devel mailing list lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org https://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-devel
