The point is that the Cygwin maintainers want a Qt4/X11 version, so there's no hope to see my port becoming official. On the other end, they want that official packages compile by using only packages already present in their distribution. This means that there's no hope that my port of LyX becomes official, either. You could at least release LyX 1.4.5.1, as the current official Cygwin version is 1.4.4, meaning that documents produced by 1.5.x cannot be loaded.
