I also have this problem, and would like it solved for all users. I tried eldad 's solution: 1) download xargs.dtx from ctan, 2) in that dir, run "latex xargs.dtx" (produces a bunch of xargs.* files), 3) sudo make the xargs dir, 4) sudo cp xargs.sty to that dir, 5) sudo texhash, 6) open lyx, in tools menu, choose "reconfigure"... it tells me to restart lyx
... but I still have the "Latex error: File 'xargs.sty' not found", and in the description area of the error list, it says "\usepackage{xargs}[2008/03/08] ^^M *** (cannot \read from terminal in nonstop modes)" any help on solving this globally (for all users)? thanks! using Karmic Koala 64bit -- Cannot export the math help file https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/369127 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
