[Pkg-lyx-devel] Bug#829268: lyx: toolbar icons do not show up with upgrade to lyx-2.2.0; needed qt-svc not installed

[David L. Johnson]

Package: lyx
Version: 2.2.0-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I just upgraded my system (debian testing), and an upgrade of lyx to 2.2.0 was
part of the upgrade.  I am a constant lyx user, so this is vital to my work.
When I ran the new version, the toolbar icons did not show up, instead showing
text descriptions --- they didn't fit on the space available, and were a mess.
The terminal window where I had started lyx had all sorts of error messages
about not being able to load icons.  I googled to find a similar problem
someone had (on ubuntu), and saw that it required qt-svg packages.  I installed
the packages libqt5svg5 qtsvg5-dbg libqtscript4-svg --- I am not sure they were
all needed, particularly the middle one), and then the icons displayed
correctly.

It looks like the package dependencies aren't quite right for this version of
lyx.
