I tried to recompile lyx-1.4.2 packages for Dapper using the new Debian
unstable packages. The packaging failed right at the end (no version
number for lyx-common found). So I recompiled myself and used
checkinstall to produce an interim package. You can get it here:
http://www.math.nyu.edu/faculty/kleeman/dapper/lyx-1.4.2_1.4.2-1_i386.deb
Before you install it (use sudo dpkg -i lyx-1.4.2_1.4.2-1_i386.deb) make
sure that the standard dapper lyx packages are not installed (there are
several).
I use it to write papers and it works well.

Hello all,
is there anything I have overseen in the mailing-list archive?
I cannot manage to install lyx 1.4.1. on ubuntu dapper, and I have found
no package hidden anywhere.
Is there a secret about ubuntu still wanting to install lyx 1.3.7 per
default and, more important, is there a way to get 1.4.2 on my kubuntu
desktop (please do not tell me to compile it, I am completely new to
the debian thing, just switched over from an rpm-based distro) ...
thanks for your help
