Description Christopher 2014-01-12 23:04:21 UTC 
Description of problem:
Started the program LyX and this error came about. I'm not sure if it still works or not because I didn't trust it after starting it so I closed the program and went old-school LaTeX with emacs.

Version-Release number of selected component:
lyx-common-2.0.7-1.fc20

Additional info:
reporter:       libreport-2.1.10
cmdline:        python -tt /usr/share/lyx/configure.py
executable:     /usr/share/lyx/configure.py

Comment 3 José Matos 2014-01-13 00:20:50 UTC 
That error is harmless.

In any case it is a bug that I will report to lyx-devel mailing list.

Two questions:

1) do you have /usr/bin/chktex installed? It comes in the texlive-chktex-bin package.

2) What is the content of ~/.lyx/configure.log ?

Thank you for the bug report.
