Package: lyx Version: 2.2.0-2 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
First: After the upgrade from 2.1.4-2 a custom layout which the previous version recognized and made usage of no longer works. No - in words: no - paragraph ending is recognized, no indentation. I see them in the editor, but in the DVI everything is just one huge paragraph. Which makes the work of almost two years unusable! Second: After treading on the above bug I downgraded manually in order to at least have a version I can work with. However, LyX 2.1.4 then told me the document had been converted into a format this version could not recover. This is outrageous! Now I not only have a hardly useable LyX, but also a document only this unuseable version can read. I call that a perfect blunder. Wouldn't you coders agree? -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.4.0-trunk-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.ISO-8859-15, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.ISO-8859-15 (charmap=ISO-8859-15) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_GB.ISO-8859-15) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) Versions of packages lyx depends on: ii libboost-signals1.58.0 1.58.0+dfsg-4.1 ii libc6 2.21-8 ii libenchant1c2a 1.6.0-10.1 ii libgcc1 1:5.3.1-7 ii libmagic1 1:5.25-2 ii libmythes-1.2-0 2:1.2.4-1 ii libqt4-svg 4:4.8.7+dfsg-5 ii libqtcore4 4:4.8.7+dfsg-5 ii libqtgui4 4:4.8.7+dfsg-5 ii libstdc++6 5.3.1-7 ii lyx-common 2.2.0-2 ii xdg-utils 1.1.1-1 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.8.dfsg-2+b1 Versions of packages lyx recommends: ii dvipng 1.14-2+b1 ii elyxer 1.2.5-1 ii evince [pdf-viewer] 3.18.2-1 ii fonts-lyx 2.1.4-2 ii ghostscript 9.16~dfsg-2.1 ii gv [pdf-viewer] 1:3.7.4-1 ii imagemagick 8:6.8.9.9-7 ii poppler-utils 0.38.0-3 ii preview-latex-style 11.88-1.1 ii psutils 1.17.dfsg-2 ii texlive-fonts-recommended 2015.20160117-1 ii texlive-generic-extra 2015.20160117-1 ii texlive-generic-recommended 2015.20160117-1 ii texlive-latex-extra 2015.20160117-1 ii texlive-latex-recommended 2015.20160117-1 ii texlive-science 2015.20160117-1 Versions of packages lyx suggests: pn chktex <none> pn etoolbox <none> pn gnuhtml2latex <none> ii groff 1.22.3-7 ii inkscape 0.91-7+b1 ii latex-xcolor 2014.20141024-2 ii latex2rtf 2.3.8-1 ii libtiff-tools 4.0.6-1 pn linuxdoc-tools <none> pn lyx-dbg <none> pn noweb <none> ii rcs 5.9.4-3 pn sgmltools-lite <none> ii texlive-latex-recommended [latex-xcolor] 2015.20160117-1 ii texlive-xetex 2015.20160117-1 ii writer2latex 1.4-1 ii wv 1.2.9-4.2+b1 -- no debconf information
