Dear lyxers, Lyx 1.4.3 has just become one of the official cygwin packages. Here is the announcement from cygwin-announce: http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-announce/2006-10/msg00002.html .
I just tried to install lyx through cygwin. Lyx starts fine but complains about missing texclass book. I guess I missed some tetex packages that should be listed as lyx' dependent packages. I also notice that math fonts are not working (\alpha etc) . Please test and report to me more such problems so that I can fix them in the next release of cygwin/lyx. Cheers, Bo
