Those who are in teTeX? In TeXLive? In the LaTeX distribution of some University?

Note first that you have this message right when you load the template. It is not as if you lost two hours writing a document. What we should do is have a better support for template by associating rigourously a template to a class. Since we do know inside LyX which classes are available, it would allow us to show this information at the template level. I am not sure when this is going to happen though. JMarc
