Package: lyx Version: 1.4.3-1 Severity: normal Hi,
When first starting lyx, one gets an impressive list of +checking for "pplatex"... no +checking for "latex"... yes etc, and seems to store the result in ~/.lyx/ . The problem comes when ~ is stored on an NFS server, and available on other fairly different systems, with/without pplatex, etc. The problem also comes just when you install/deinstall packages in Debian. So storing a cache of available programs/packages/... doesn't really make sense, particularly since the reconfiguration doesn't take so long.
