Replying to iceh@…:

Runar can't do that because he has no more OSX machine.

Updated to 1.6.0 in r42931. What needs to be done for TeX?

[iceh@…]

Thx Mark!

1.6 adds support for "beamer-conference-ornate" - i didn't check if but i think this TeX package isn't installed.

[markd@…]

Is the latex-beamer program required? That has not been ported yet.

[iceh@…]

Woot! Works :) Thx. Even the beamer stuff. The latex stylefile is already included in TeX, so there's no need to update anything more!

Thx a lot. I can now use LyX to create very nice presentations.

Here's one small issue:

Error: Activating lyx 1.6.0_0 failed: Image error: /Applications/MacPorts/LyX.app/Contents/Info.plist is being used by the active LyX port. Please deactivate this port first, or use the -f flag to force the activation.

Can you fix this? I did this with -f.

[markd@…]

Great to hear the beamer stuff is working. I don't have time to search for the ticket, but I think the activate problem is a known issue. For ports with upper case characters (LyX) if you uninstall a port and the case does not match at the command line, the uninstall is incomplete. Weird, but true. I saw that too and uninstalled using the proper case letters and it uninstalled properly. Or you can force it too. Since the problem is in mp base, I'll close the ticket.

The uninstall case problem is #11759, FYI.
