Every time Latex is updated, Lyx must be reconfigured.
Is there a way for Lyx to check whether Latex has been updated
since the last time it was reconfigured, and if so, to reconfigure itself?
Just an idea: how about comparing the modification time of LyX's config file
and the ls-R files in the texmf trees (system, local, and user)?
Not enough. You also need to reconfigure LyX if you install/remove
any other supported software. Such as image/spreadsheet converters that
LyX can use - or new layouts. Of course, the layouts can probably be
detected by the timestamp on the .lyx/layouts directory...
Still, it would help for the case of LaTeX updates.
