LaTeX Error: Command \singlespacing already defined.
From reading up on similar errors I think it may be a conflict between
packages but I'm not experienced enough to know which ones cause the
conflict and which ones can be deleted. My document class is the
thesis class for my university which I'm including and it looks like
it installs the following packages:
\documentclass[oneside,english]{msuthesis}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[latin9]{inputenc}
\usepackage{units}
\usepackage{textcomp}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{setspace}
\usepackage{nomencl}
Can anyone point me in the right direction since Google wasn't any
help? Thanks in advance.
If you look in your cls file, you will see that it does define a
\singlespacing command. When you try to change to single spacing, LyX
includes setspace.sty, which I think also defines a command by that
name. The solution, for our purposes, is probably to change the command
in the class file to something else, and then search and replace the
other occurrences.
