But I was not serious! And as I said to Bo, I could not fix this seriously without being able to test (it is not just adding a few .c files). And moreover, if scons using windows users had tested that (which I requested), we would have caught this one. > PS: Although I appreciate the speed at which bugs get fixed in the > 1.5.X branch, I am a bit surprised that it seems to be much easier to > get things into 1.5.[1-9] than in 1.5.0.

Because when 1.X.0 approaches, people have this feeling that the end of the world is near and they come out of the blue with new features they cannot leave without (the "lyx will be useless if ..." syndrome). In this case, it is much easier in terms of diplomacy to shut off all new features before major release ;) However, concerning my recent patch, the truth is that I am alone at home in front of a brand new mac and I can do now what I have been vaguely promising to do for ages. One final patch to commit and localization on the mac will "just work". This is something I want to finish before Bromarv. > For instance, we have to inform the translators that several > important user messages have changed/been added. I would be annoyed if modifying translation strings was not allowed in stable releases. I do not understand: you did this job of warning translators for several 1.4 releases already. > PPS: Back from vacation, I see that trunk and branch have diverted slightly: > svn diff svn://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/branches/BRANCH_1_5_X > svn://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/trunk > Is this on purpose? No, as Bo said, I have homework to do. JMarc
