The newest tetex is not functional for me. When I use it on my latex document it fucks up the margins. If I use pdflatex my images even get rotated. For me this indicated that the newest tetex ebuild uses a broken tetex.
I also had to downgrade to tetex-1.0.7-r10.ebuild. For me documents in LyX using Template "g-brief-de.lyx" would throw latex errors and not work.
Ok, the language is a bit harsh. I need more information - which size of paper were you using, which templates... I think that in between the default paper size was changed, and so I want to determine what the issue at hand is. Also, I need the specific error in LyX.
The start of my latex file: \ifx\pdfoutput\undefined \documentclass[dvips,a4paper,11pt,english]{article} \else \documentclass[pdftex,a4paper,11pt,english]{article} \fi \usepackage{babel} \usepackage[hmargin=3cm, top=1.5cm, bottom=1cm,footskip=1.5cm ,head=0.8cm,headse p=1.2cm]{geometry} \usepackage{calc} \usepackage{ifthen} %\usepackage{color} \usepackage{url} \usepackage{tabularx} \usepackage{longtable} \usepackage{array} \usepackage{subfigure} \ifthenelse{\isundefined{\pdfoutput}}{ \usepackage{graphicx} \DeclareGraphicsExtensions{.eps,.jpg,.mps,.png} }{ \usepackage[pdftex]{graphicx} \DeclareGraphicsExtensions{.jpg,.pdf,.mps,.png} } \usepackage{xspace} \usepackage{varioref} \usepackage{afterpage} \usepackage{amsfonts} \ifthenelse{\isundefined{\pdfoutput}}{}{ \pdfinfo{ /Title (Towards an overview of a user modelling system) /Creator (LaTeX) /Author (P.t. de Vrieze, P. van Bommel, J.

I'm going to mark this as WONTFIX because the newest tetex ebuild will remain masked until it becomes obsolete - i.e., we will be using tetex-1.0.7 for the forseeable future, until tetex > 1.0.7 is available, in full-release format.
