[Bug 297812] Re: Can't write \nicefrac fractions

[Dara Adib]

Do you have the package texlive-latex-extra installed, which should
provide the file /usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/units/nicefrac.sty
exist on your computer? Please install it if you haven't and try
reproducing the error.

texlive-latex-extra is currently suggested by LyX.

It should probably be recommended instead, as recommended packages are
installed by default in Ubuntu 8.10, but are not required dependencies.

According to the Debian Policy Manual:

Recommends

    This declares a strong, but not absolute, dependency.

    The Recommends field should list packages that would be found
together with this one in all but unusual installations.

Suggests

    This is used to declare that one package may be more useful with one
or more others. Using this field tells the packaging system and the user
that the listed packages are related to this one and can perhaps enhance
its usefulness, but that installing this one without them is perfectly
reasonable.
