Nirmal, I think the problem is the lyx.spec has a dependency on "qt", while mandrake provides "qt3". I think that you could/should replce in lyx.spec the line %define frontdep qt >= 2.2.1 with something like %define frontdep qt3 >= 3.1.0 If you can do that, I'll be glad to replace the rpm And in general, it would be nice if we could think of a way of putting the right dependencies in the spec...
