I would like to mention that the server which hosts the LyX svn development
trunk is configured in such a way that some places may have problems pulling in
the code. For example, from home, I have no problems downloading LyX using svn.
From work (a very security-conscious place), the same commands will fail,
giving virtually no clues as to why, and yet svn checkouts and updates work
from *other servers* when used from my workplace. What I have to do there is
ssh into yet another computer on the "outside", svn update from there, and then
snag the results to my work computer. Despite the hassle, 2.0 has been worth it.
I have no idea why this happens, despite several concerted days of trying
different things, emailing both the LyX server maintainer and our security
people, etc., who all had good suggestions but no definitive answers. My best
guess at this point is that our work firewall/proxy system was somehow hung up
on particular configuration flags from the svn server.
So, fellow LyXers, if your svn commands fail somehow (some recent messages
have indicated that they might), it might just not be your fault!
Regards,
C.O.

Get the trunk from:
svn co svn://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/trunk lyx-devel
Configure with:
./autogen.sh
./configure --with-version-suffix=-svn --enable-build-type=release
And the the usual:
make
sudo make install
Good luck.
