Dear Gurus for lyx/latex,

I am trying to trace a citation error in my document (koma, book, 2 column, 
debian). I divided the document in a master and several subdocuments. 
I am getting in /tmp/lyx_tmpdir.TJ4198/lyx_tmpbuf directories for the master 
and the subdocuments. 
Could somebody explain the task of these tmp files and its handling by lyx? 

The reason is, that I have difficulties to localize the citation error, 
because even after taking out the offending citation lyx is still complaining 
about it. I have to close lyx and reopen it until I get the response after 
removing. I guessed, that the aux file is reused after a new run of lyx 
(without closing it down), and wanted to remove it therefore from the 
tmp-directory(ies). I am however, uncertain about it, since the last file 
which contains the citation error produces no tmp-directory.

Also, why has the master file directory no aux-file, although this is the file 
where the list of references is located at the end. The subdirectories have 
also a list of references at the end, but they are in a commentary-note 
(allowing to view all the references, that is master and subdirectories). 

Wolfgang
