Thanks. I changed the layout file as you suggested:
#% Do not delete the line below; configure depends on this #
#\DeclareLaTeXClass{authesis}
# Read the definitions from report.layout
Input report.layout
and here is the output from terminal. It looks like it worked (?). I
open LyX and my class is not available, and if I configure I still get
the error. Can you help again?, thanks.
here is the terminal output:
