Re: Cannot build lyx-1.3.1qt src rpm
OK, I found entries in the latest config.log refering to the qt compile fail.
It is looking for qt2 libs/includes?! Surely this isn't a qt2-based
frontend? I have specifically pointed it at /usr/lib/qt3 by setting
QTDIR=/usr/lib/qt3 and using the configure switches specifically telling it
to go to /usr/lib/qt3/includes and /usr/lib/qt3/libs for all the qt devel
files.

I must say that I am so very happy with how customizable LyX is.. and how easy it is.. that I got carried away a bit w/ this.. But then that's probably the best way to RTFM..??

OK, thank you. However, changing my compiler hasn't helped. This is Mandrake 9.0. The qt3 libs installed are the stock rpms (qt-3.0.5). Since the default compiler on a stock 9.0 install is set to gcc-3.2, I would assume that the qt3 rpms were built with gcc-3.2. I WAS using 2.96 (because 3.2 will not successfully compile the 2.4.19 and 2.4.2* kernels with XFS support (at least). In any case, I have only 2 options: 2.96 or 3.2. Switching to 3.2 and trying to rebuild the rpm again still fails as before. praedor
Elsevier layout and authors / thanksref
Hi list, I just upgrade my lyx installation to 1.3.1 and notice that Frontmatter style, added to elsevier layout to generate frontmatter page did not appear anymore. I need to add several authors with several address and location to a paper. I did this before with red latex code, \author and \thanksref, but now, it is not possible to do that, due to is not possible to add an standard paragraph between author addrese, etc lines, and adding \thanks or \tanksref in the author gives me an error. How is possible to drive with this problem?

Any config time option to speed up the build process besides turning off -O2? Max I lurk the list and thought I'd mention my experiences. 1) 1.3.1 compiled without problems on my Slack system, perhaps because I point out the misc libs it might need. (This is my way of saying that I think RPMs stink because you're semi-beholden to a script that might not be what you need. Try using the raw source; it might be what you need (it was back in my LinuxPPC days.)) And 2) Who cares how long it takes to compile? Why turn off any optimizations? You compile once. You use it many times; _that's_ where the benefits are. Finally, here's my config string for raw source on Slackware. God knows Slack's different from RH, so it might not work, but enjoy my largesse ;) configure --with-extra-lib=/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/X11R6/lib --with-extra-inc=/usr/include:/usr/src/linux-2.4.20/include This is all given in the sourcecode tarball the lyx people have been kind enough to prepare.

Compiling LyX 1.3.1 on Mac OS X (10.2.4)
Hi all, I am trying to get LyX 1.3.1 to compile on a Mac running OS X (10.2.4). First, has anyone been successful getting 1.3.0 or 1.3.1 to compile using Apple's (buggy) gcc3? Since I was unsuccessful using Apple's gcc3 (December 2002 Developer Tools), I decided to try compiling with gcc2. While comfortable in UNIX, I am not a programmer and don't know how to proceed past the following error. Apparently, the code compiled successfully, but can't be assembled (linked?). Below shows what I did and output I think is relevant. % #!/bin/sh % export CC=gcc2 % export CXX=g++2 % export CPPFLAGS='-no-cpp-precomp' % export CCACHE_DISABLE=1 % ./configure --with-extra-prefix=/sw:/usr/local snip Configuration Host type: powerpc-apple-darwin6.4 Special build flags:xforms-image-loader C Compiler: gcc2 C Compiler flags: -g -O2 C++ Compiler: g++2 (2.95.2) C++ Compiler flags: -O -Wno-non-template-friend -ftemplate-depth-30 Linker flags:-L/sw/lib -L/usr/local/lib Frontend: xforms libXpm version: 4.11 libforms version: 1.0.0 LyX binary dir: /usr/local/bin LyX files dir: /usr/local/share/lyx Configuration of LyX was successful.

No, it's the opengl (3D rendering) libraries. If you don't have it, then you must compile a Qt version that doesn't include the support. I found the lib and use --with-extra-lib to refer to it. I can then configure and make. However, make stops with error message: can not find ... lib. It works again after I set setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH 'every lib pathes' It is still compiling now.

In other words I would need this menu to be dynamically gen'd to reflect only the valid styles for the selected document class.. I wonder if this is possible..? I had tried using the keyword Layouts before this but lyx apprently only recognizes it in the toolbar section of the ui config file.. Another annoying problem is that the accelerators (Alt_p-s for Standard - eg.) no longer work..! Alt-p opens the menu.. but then I have to select the style by moving the up/down arrows and hitting enter when the desired entry is focused.. So for now and since I couldn't altogether get rid of the toolbar anyway I may go back to that peculiar Layouts mini-window and make sure I memorize (most of..) the accelerators.. Does the qt GUI also have this feature..? All the same I still like the idea of having a menu rather than the mini-window.. and having the mini-buffer - or some status bar feature display the Paragraph style that is currently active.. Besides giving the GUI a simpler more homogeneous look feel.. (?) the main reason is that I never use a pointing device unless I have to.. and I haven't found a way to open the styles' mini-window from the keyboard.

It is looking for qt2 libs/includes?! Surely this isn't a qt2-based
frontend? I have specifically pointed it at /usr/lib/qt3 by setting
QTDIR=/usr/lib/qt3 and using the configure switches specifically telling it
to go to /usr/lib/qt3/includes and /usr/lib/qt3/libs for all the qt devel
files.

OK, thank you. However, changing my compiler hasn't helped. This is Mandrake 9.0. The qt3 libs installed are the stock rpms (qt-3.0.5). Since the default compiler on a stock 9.0 install is set to gcc-3.2, I would assume that the qt3 rpms were built with gcc-3.2. I WAS using 2.96 (because 3.2 will not successfully compile the 2.4.19 and 2.4.2* kernels with XFS support (at least). In any case, I have only 2 options: 2.96 or 3.2.

Compiling LyX 1.3.1 on Mac OS X (10.2.4)
Hi all, I am trying to get LyX 1.3.1 to compile on a Mac running OS X (10.2.4). First, has anyone been successful getting 1.3.0 or 1.3.1 to compile using Apple's (buggy) gcc3? Since I was unsuccessful using Apple's gcc3 (December 2002 Developer Tools), I decided to try compiling with gcc2. While comfortable in UNIX, I am not a programmer and don't know how to proceed past the following error. Apparently, the code compiled successfully, but can't be assembled (linked?). Below shows what I did and output I think is relevant. % #!/bin/sh % export CC=gcc2 % export CXX=g++2 % export CPPFLAGS='-no-cpp-precomp' % export CCACHE_DISABLE=1 % ./configure --with-extra-prefix=/sw:/usr/local snip Configuration Host type: powerpc-apple-darwin6.4 Special build flags:xforms-image-loader C Compiler: gcc2 C Compiler flags: -g -O2 C++ Compiler: g++2 (2.95.2) C++ Compiler flags: -O -Wno-non-template-friend -ftemplate-depth-30 Linker flags:-L/sw/lib -L/usr/local/lib Frontend: xforms libXpm version: 4.11 libforms version: 1.0.0 LyX binary dir: /usr/local/bin LyX files dir: /usr/local/share/lyx Configuration of LyX was successful.

Re: Compiling LyX 1.3.1 on Mac OS X (10.2.4)
is successful. However, if I use gcc2, the same configure script dies with checking for moc2... not found checking for moc... /sw/bin/moc checking for uic... /sw/bin/uic checking for Qt library name... failed configure: error: Cannot compile a simple Qt executable. Check you have the right $QTDIR ! Shouldn't there be a --with-qt-dir=QTdirectoryname also in the configure options? I think it's looking for the executables moc, uic etc. which would be in the QT directory which hasn't been specified (only the includes have been specified) if I'm not too wrong.. Have no clue on the other problems you mentioned.. nirmal
