Angus, this is what I do: $ cd libiconv-1.10 $ ./configure CC='gcc -mno-cygwin' CXX='g++ -mno-cygwin' CFLAGS='-O2' \ CXXFLAGS='-O2' --enable-static --disable-shared --disable-nls \ --prefix=C:/MinGW $ make $ make install and then I configure LyX with --with-included-gettext. Works for me and I don't get garbage. Please double check the other post where I was talking about LYX_ABS_INSTALLED_LOCALEDIR, this one maybe the culprit. -- Enrico
