I think every binary should be _absolutely_ identical with the relase tarball, which _is_ LyX 1.5.7. That's why I even considered retagging 1.5.7 after the changes to the NEWS file. For instance this fix: > URL: http://www.lyx.org/trac/changeset/27409 > Log: > SConstruct, scons_manifest.py: fix for Galician does not only concern your installer. And even if, the installer files are part of the tarball, and thus should not be changed after a freeze. What you distribute isn't actually LyX 1.5.7. My proposal is: every binary that is named LyX 1.5.7 _must_ be build from the source, which is the tarball and not SVN. No change *whatsoever* after a freeze (if a change turns out to be crucial, we must either retag and rebuild the release, or publish a new release). And I'd actually like to have a definite decision in this point. BTW please notice that 1.5.x is frozen now in general, unless we find some reason to change that. J??rgen
