I guess I need texlive-lang-all
which is not in the texlive 2013 of synaptic, but in texlive 2012
If I select this for installation, synaptic is going to remove a lot
of texlive and other stuff, which I hesitate to do.
If I try to install texlive-lang-all by apt-get install,
I get
root@wolfgang:/home/we# apt-get install texlive-lang-all
Paketlisten werden gelesen... Fertig

Statusinformationen werden eingelesen.... Fertig
Einige Pakete konnten nicht installiert werden. Das kann bedeuten, dass
Sie eine unmögliche Situation angefordert haben oder, wenn Sie die
Unstable-Distribution verwenden, dass einige erforderliche Pakete noch
nicht erstellt wurden oder Incoming noch nicht verlassen haben.
Die folgenden Informationen helfen Ihnen vielleicht, die Situation zu
lösen:
Die folgenden Pakete haben unerfüllte Abhängigkeiten:
texlive-lang-all : Hängt ab von: texlive-lang-latvian (>=
2012.20120516) soll aber nicht installiert werden
and so on in a long list
Perhaps instead of trying to install all languages, just install those
you want to use. Install them before you install LyX, maybe.
Actually, though, why you can't install all languages is somehow a fault
of either the package maintainer, or the archive you are using. What
came after where you cut this off? Did it say why it was not going to
install the Latvian package? Maybe the file wasn't found?
