I have used LyX to produce a book. I believe these are abandoned packages that are no longer required after some upgrade to LyX or the respective packages!

Well as I recall I had the recommendations turned off. Besides, I installed LyX with synaptic. The bug appears to have been backed up by another user. I thought (& it is true) that a stand-alone LyX is <30MB but I wasn't aware that the TeX packages are the Big deal!

I am writing a technical document which requires math formulas & even physics notation -e.g; (quantum) bracket- (it's actually a physics document for a course). I'd like to collaborate with someone to write it & edit it. Doesn't that requires TeX?

If you (any of you) care to guide me on how to download the packages so I can make the install on the non-conected system, that would be greatly appreciated; otherwise I will refer to the ubuntu forums!
