I can. The Zip file is sufficient to build LyX. Here's the installer:

State of master and release process

[Scott Kostyshak]

Just an update for those who have not been following the other
conversations, and also a question:

beta2 has been tagged, and the tars have been posted. We have not
formally released it because we are still trying to make it so that it
is possible to compile on Windows from the self-contained archive. There
is a problem with extracting the tar on Windows, so I have just sent Uwe
a zip file containing the same files that the tar contains.

If the zip file extracts correctly and Uwe can compile for Windows, does
this mean that we should release beta2 as long as we post the zip file
and in the email announcement we recommend the zip file if compiling on
Windows? Or because the tar has issues with being extracted on Windows,
we must move to beta3 which hopefully (still not confirmed) would
produce a tar that can be extracted correctly with the Windows build? A
separate question is does it matter that the 'make lyxdist' command for
beta2 did not produce the zip file that would be posted as beta2?

It seems to me that although it is indicative of an inexperienced
release manager, the best thing would be to move to beta3, and confirm
with Uwe before posting the files that the archive can be extracted and
that the Windows build succeeds. I don't have a strong opinion on this
though.

On a separate note, master branch is open. Depending on the above
discussion we might move very soon to beta3, so please nothing
non-trivial.

These two additions are not needed, right? At least the files appear in the
tar also before this changes.


Yes, only the .txt files are needed.



What about the unused files libs/regex/regex.vcproj,
libs/signals/signals.vcproj, libs/regex/src/icu.cpp,
libs/regex/src/usinstances.cpp and libs/regex/src/wc_regex_traits.cpp? I'd
like to remove them from git.



I'm sure only about .vcproj.

I guess so. My newsreader did not display any names for the attachments at

Thanks for the explanation. I did not think of the \inputencoding setting of 
the LyX file.

Right, I mixed this up with the first version of the diff that I did the 
other way round.

I do. Otherwise the installer for the betas would be 69 MB large.

Typo? "Ctreate" instead of "Create"?

For me it is not clear, how the binary zip-file is created on windows.
If I would know, I could create a new target to compute md5sum for this 
zip-file.
I created and committed a cmake-script to be used for this task.

Now I see that you use it only for the bundle installer. I would have 
thought that the gain is not so high there, since it probably contains 
lots of stuff that is already compressed.

Yes, a zip would be fine. I don't think that we need to save a few kB by
using special formats like .xz.


As Pavel pointed out, this is an interesting understatement. But indeed 
the size of the source distribution is not vital on binary-loving 
platforms like windows.
