Dear all, I hope this helps any redhat users out there. I eventually managed to get lyx 1.2.1 running on redhat 7.3. I am definitely not an expert on linux, redhat ect so if there is anything wrong or dangerous with the following suggestions please point them out before i cause major damage to others.
I tried to rebuild lyx using the the source file as suggested (rpm --rebuild lyx-1.2.1-1.src.rpm) i recieved an error related in to xforms. I then uninstalled xforms-0.89-5 and replaced it with xforms-0.88-4 Then i tried installing lyx-1.2.1-1.rpm and rebiulding from lyx-1.2.1-1.src.rpm, this still would not work (libstdc++-libc6.1-2.so.3 was now the problem) However the good news is that recompiling the source code (generated during rpm --rebuild lyx-1.2.1-1.src.rpm) using ./configure and ./make worked once xforms-0.88-4 was installed Matty On Fri, 2002-09-27 at 10:05, Rich Shepard wrote: > On 27 Sep 2002, Matthew Kelly wrote: > > > xforms_helpers.h:17:26: forms.h: No such file or directory > > Matty, > > Do you have the xforms package installed?
