Ok, then I'll do as you suggest.
Currently, I'm trying to get LyX to run as
/home/angus/Program\ Files/LyX/bin/lyx-1.3.6cvs
but it's hanging whilst running ../share/lyx/configure at
checking LaTeX configuration... auto
If I subsequently kill lyx and restart it, then all is Ok. At that point,
my .lyx directory contains:
$ ls ~/.lyx-1.3.6cvs/
bind doc images reLyX ui xfonts
chklayouts.tex examples kbd scripts wrap_chkconfig.log
clipart help layouts templates wrap_chkconfig.ltx
Note, no lyxrc.defaults (because I killed LyX whilst reconfiguring?)
$ cat wrap_chkconfig.ltx
\newcommand\srcdir{/home/angus/Program Files/LyX/share/lyx-1.3.6cvs}
\def\haslinuxdoc{yes}
\def\hasdocbook{yes}
\input{/home/angus/Program Files/LyX/share/lyx-1.3.6cvs/chkconfig.ltx}
$ ls -l wrap_chkconfig.log
-rw-rw-r-- 1 angus angus 0 Feb 2 11:25 wrap_chkconfig.log
Any ideas?
