Changes to LaTeX

[Eberhard W Lisse]

Riki,

sorry about that.

In short, if LyX generates a LaTeX file which includes

\usepackage{menukeys}

and, if one has updated the LaTeX installation (in my case MacTeX) to current (Latex Fmt 2020-10-01) compilation to PDF triggers the error.

I will try to make a MWE in LyX, but do not know how to force menukeys. In my handbook (20 child documents) I find menukeys close to listings (lyx -e luatex), so I assumed it had something to do with the listings package.

greetings, el
