The unicode tests would often fail when tested in parallel because
we were not exporting to unique file names. From what I understand,
a variant similar to the following race condition occurred:
1. Thread A exports to file blah.pdf.
2. Thread B exports to file blah.pdf.
3. Thread A confirms file blah.pdf exists.
4. Thread A deletes exported file blah.pdf to clean up.
5. Thread B fails to find file blah.pdf and reports a failure.
The new JSS cls has been failing on an updated TeX Live 2020 for a
while, both with the template they provide and with LyX's template.
I expect this will be fixed eventually but for now it's best to
invert it as a "texissue".
With an updated TeX Live 2020 an assertion is given. The assertion
was reported on the LuaTeX ML [1], and will be converted into the
following error as of LuaTeX svn commit r7385:
! the word doesn't start with a character
The error could likely be worked around with a change to the
document but since the document compiles without error with XeTeX I
did not change anything since I do not understand the issue.

Export to all formats seems to work well after removing the "ps2pdf"
option to the hyperref package.
Accordingly we uninvert the tests for the other formats. All ctests
pass on an updated TeX Live 2020.
This is mostly for shapepar support, in a rare situation. Fixing this would create a lot of special cases in output_docbook.cpp, i.e. fixing the issue (which will barely happen in real life) would make maintenance much harder.
The debug mode is set with the environment LYX_DEBUG_LATEX
$ export LYX_DEBUG_LATEX=1
The downside: From time to time the need to remove the superfluous dirs
$ cd build-dir
$ find autotests/out-home -name AbC_\* | xargs rm -rf
More generally, ensures that paragraphs in abstracts do not have something else configured.
A major problem in making the layout more useful is that article titles are not supposed to be in TOC.
Compilation of our Seminar example file fails on updated TL20. The
maintainer of "Seminar" is not planning to fix the core issue and
states the following (in a private email with permission to quote):
it is a problem with the new hook management of the current latex.ltx
seminar is a quite old package and there is no reason to use it with a
new LaTeX format. It won't be fixed, so the usual way is to use the
package latexrealease to get the old hook management.
This commit adds a note to the example files explaining the
workaround of exporting to a .tex file and prepending the following
line:
\RequirePackage[2020-02-02]{latexrelease}
We now invert the relevant tests.
LyX should still avoid crashing on those, and if they start to pass, then something is wrong (most likely, a very large part of the files is being ignored).
These exports now pass, and the output looks reasonable to me
(although I do not know Hebrew). I believe they work now because of
Jürgen's fixes at a7ad0747 and d7b64b8e.
Thanks to Jürgen, who mentions the following:
luaotfload does not find "DavidCLM". In fact, at least on my system,
there is no such font, only "DavidCLM Medium" (and other shapes). This
one is found. Apparently, luaotfload cannot infer from the one to the
other.
As opposed to LuaTEX, XeTeX also queries TEXMF so maybe it just finds
its font there.
In many cases, round trip with older formats involves exporting ERT
or preamble code in the backwards conversion. In the forwards
conversion, if this code is not parsed, often errors can result.
However, in many cases, especially for older formats, it might not
be worth the time or code complexity to address these cases. Such
tests are labled "ertroundtrip".
This commit also inverts a currently failing lyx22x test under the
label "ertroundtrip" since the above paragraph is my best guess as
to why that test is failing. It is likely not worth the time to fix
it, especially since the APA7 layout wasn't even shipped for LyX
2.2.x.
The sax-parser is choking on tags like 'section*' or 'Braille (default)'.
Also setting parameters like 'height=12pt' are not valid.
The added filter tries to 'correct' the input for the sax parser.
E.g. 'Braille (default)' ==> 'Braille__default_', 'section*' ==> 'section_'
and 'height =12pt' ==> 'height="12pt"'
All of these changes were due to
1.) Changed latex output (white space)
2.) changed reaction of dialog shortcut to return from
find-adv settings to search tab
3.) debug-mode of libstdc++
4.) LASSERT in InsetMathGrid.cpp
