Hi, in the Mac installer for 1.6.0rc4, the new elsarticle class is included, but the corresponding template file elsarticle.lyx is not copied to ~/Library/Application Support/LyX-1.6/templates. (the file is present inside the LyX package). I also tried moving my old Lyx-1.5 user directory out of the way to simulate a fresh install, and a reconfigure inside LyX without results. The LaTeX classes are installed in my private texmf tree and do work.
Is this a bug in the installer? If yes there might be other template files also affected, which I haven't tested. cheers, Nils
