Thank you very much, Sebastian, I've learnt a couple of essentials thanks to you. Most question marks have gone in my mind about the way apt-get works. I've added deb-src's into sources.list, then after a very long compilation process automake1.7 has created the debs, out of which I've installed LyX and its libraries in success. It works. Thanks a lot again. -- Emre Isik
