     When will the official RPM package for 1.1.2 be available?  Or even
1.1.3 if it will be out very soon.  While making this package, is it also
possible to make another one optimized for i586?  At present, the 1.0.4
package's name has i386 inside it, meaning that it's for general purpose.

     While we're here, allow me to suggest that LyX icon file be
installed too.  In rpm packages, which are destinated for Linux, icon
file can be put in /usr/share/icons which is the system-wide icon
directory for KDE.  I seldom use Gnome but I think its icon directory is
/usr/share/pixmaps

     For tar.gz package (ie, for all Unix), during configuration, maybe
users could be asked if they want to install icon file for such WM or
such environment.  I think for CDE, the directory is /usr/dt/icons.
Could someone else confirm this?  Please tell us what you know about this
for the other WM and environment.
