Hi JMarc,
Reasonably sure. I was having the problems back in November. And there
were two separate issues. The first was getting LyX 2 to work, the second
was related to getting R + Sweave to work.
The problems that eventually required Sweave.sty were related to getting
documents to compile correctly. Without it, the compilation would simply
terminate with "There was an R error" or some such. After placing
Sweave.sty in the tex path, this resolved itself.
Being truth what I've said before and what JMarc said about LyX checking
R availability to load Sweave module, I'm facing the same problem Rob
describes when trying to compile a new document including S/R
expressions. I will try to describe the situation:
*1.* A LyX 2.0.0 alpha2 installation crashes when trying to load Sweave
module if R is not installed in the same box. In this case, I guess it
will be advisable to trigger a warning saying that R is required instead
of causing an exception that crashes LyX. I'm sure developers are
consciences of this and the only problem here is time to make the
required changes! :-)
*2. *Once R is installed, Sweave module loads without a glitch.
*3.* If I try to compile a new document including S/R expressions,
compilation fails throwing the following error:
! LaTeX Error: File `Sweave.sty' not found.
Here the full stack to further reference:

As stated in a previous message, the LaTeX environment here was created
as per...
http://www.tug.org/mactex/2009/
[ approximately 1.3G - 12 March 2010 ]
MacTeX-2009.mpkg
MacTeX.mpkg.zip
*4. *Until I copy Sweave.sty to the TeX path and reconfigure LyX,
compilation fails.
I copied Sweave.sty from a older box with a running LyX 1.6.5/Sweave/R
installation.
GMXUX-Ricardo-Rodriguez:~ rrodriguez$ kpsewhich Sweave.sty
/Users/rrodriguez/Library/texmf/tex/latex/R/Sweave.sty
Please, provided its module is loaded, must Sweave work out of the box
in LyX 2.0? Is it expected that Sweave.sty is included with LaTeX? I
guess a warning will be required some where to avoid the problem we are
facing here! Thanks!
Let me know if I can be of any further help!
Greetings,
Ricardo
