Hello, I'm making progress :
- installing libqt4-debug and libqt4-dev-debug - Running update-alternatives --config moc and update-alternatives --config uic to point to qt4 version - changing QTDIR to /usr/share/qt4 (don't know if its necessary) I'm able to compile lyx-qt4 But when I execute it, it crashes with this message : [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/local/src/lyx-cvs/lyx-devel/development/scons/debug$ ./lyx-qt4 Same as entered returned terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::bad_cast' what(): St8bad_cast Abandon I'm again clueless... Cheers, Charles
