Description papoteur 2016-02-07 19:36:32 CET
Description of problem:
The compilation line issued from Lyx is:
 latex2rtf -p -S modele.tex
for my file modele.lyx
But this command fails:
(Not set):1   Cannot open the latex2rtf config file 'direct.cfg'
(Not set):1   Locate the directory containing the .cfg files and
(Not set):1      (1) define the environment variable RTFPATH, *or*
(Not set):1      (2) use command line path option "-P /path/to/cfg/file", *or*
(Not set):1      (3) recompile latex2rtf with CFGDIR defined properly
(Not set):1   Current RTFPATH: (null)
(Not set):1   Current  CFGDIR: /usr/local/etc/latex2rtf
(Not set):1   Error!  Giving up.  Please don't hate me.

Conf files are in /etc/latex2rtf
By specifying a path to correct the conf dir, the compilation is a success.
latex2rtf -p -S -P/etc/latex2rtf/ modele.tex

@ wally

assigning to you, because you worked on it, instead of to QA, because the advisory is still missing
