Beamer document: Undefined control sequence

I copied a .lyx beamer class file to a new name and am modifying the copy
for a different presentation. (I did this because I like the layout in the
original and copying is a quick way to get that in the new document.)

However, when I compile it (pdflatex) using Ctrl-h an error box displays an
undefined control sequence in \makebeamertitle only the copied file, not the
original. Yet, the .pdf file is produced and displays. A mwe.lyx is
attached.

While I close the error box and go on, I'd like to understand what broke in
the copy so I can fix it.

I hope you're all healthy -- and stay that way -- and coping with the
pandemic and economic disruptions.

Regards,

Rich
