How interesting! I've erased the PATH environment variable!

So the fault lies in "prependEnvPath". Yet Andreas says that this
(identical) code works perfectly for him when using the 1.4.x version. I'm
a bit baffled.
Could you post the output of:
$ grep -e 'HAVE_SETENV' -e 'HAVE_PUTENV' config.h
Also, could you alter this function in src/support/filetools.C:
void setEnvPath(string const & name, vector<string> const & env)
{
char const separator(os::path_separator());
std::ostringstream ss;
vector<string>::const_iterator it = env.begin();
vector<string>::const_iterator const end = env.end();
for (; it != end; ++it) {
if (ss.tellp() > 0)
ss << separator;
ss << os::external_path(*it);
}
- PutEnv(name + "=" + ss.str());
+ bool const result = PutEnv(name + "=" + ss.str());
+ lyxerr << "setEnvPath(" << name << ") == " << result << std::endl;
}
