"I would recommend for mavrosym.sty to change "Telefon" to "Telefone"!
JG: Don't do this, this might break other packages that use marvosym.
Rather get a recent version of g-brief.cls, where the bug is fixed
(according to the g-brief manual).

Stefan previously scrieb:
I tried an uninstall of Lyx 1.4.2 and reinstalled 1.4.1 (with 1.4.1
it used to work). But then it wouldn't even work in 1.4.1.! Now I
have 1.4.2 up and running but the error persists!
Is this error reproducible by anyone? What causes the error? If it
is not reproducible, what am I doing wrong with my lyx installation?
Please help me. I have lots of old documents using this class. Also
I like the layout more than the g-brief2 class.(and continued later)
I have two more questions though:
1) How would I figure out that the error comes from marvosym.sty,
as it is not mentioned in the error message?
2) Will this problem be resolved with future versions of miktex
or lyx?
-------------------------------------------
1) = SH: So the usual recommendation of upgrading to the newest
release of a module and reading the documentation seems to prevail.
I'm still not sure why the behavior changed (different computers?).
Peer review of Michael Hartje's proposed solution in
"Telefon double definition in g-brief and mavrosym"
demonstrates the strength of researching the LyX User
mailing list and archives.
2) Jürgen indicates this was a Miktex package problem.
