Well done!
Works for me on a PPC (except for the view ps2pdf, but that is most
likely my configuration).
For the interested who like to create a universal on a PPC with 10.4,
Bennett's script needs an altered flag:
export CFLAGS="-isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk -arch i386"
since the SDK are not universal by default (http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn2005/tn2137.html
)
Currently I'm stuck with the compiler being unable to find libz, but
thanks to your work there is no rush to find a solution for that :-)

Dear all,
I finally succeeded building Mac binaries of LyX 1.5.5 using
autoconf and a static Qt build - which still took a while, but went
smoothly.
Thanks to Bennett for holding hands!
Please find them here:

THIS IS NOT THE OFFICIAL INSTALLER !!!
(only the app itself, and untested)
The archive contains two zipped applicaton bundles, one is Intel-
only, and one a Universal binary. It also contains the output of
configure, and the a modified version of Bennett's script which
shows you what I did.
Bennett, please pick the one you prefer, and test if it works on
your machines, esp. PPC and/or Leopard.
Bennett, one thing I found:
1) The configure-parameter --build should be YOUR machine (i.e. --
build=i686-apple-darwin9.xx.xx) with xx.xx whatever you have.
If you call configure without this parameter it tells you what you
have.
2) The configure-parameter --host should be the machine you build
for, i.e. the host the program should run at. So use either
--host=i686-apple-darwin8 or --host=powerpc-apple-darwin8
Always specify --host AND --build, see
<http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/html_node/Specifying-Names.html#Specifying-Names

I hope it works!
Regards,
Konrad

Hi Bennett,
If it can be of any help have placed a 10.4 compilation of LyX
1.5.5
on PPC at:
http://homepage.mac.com/anek/Temp/FileSharing24.html
Unfortunately I don't have any 10.4 installation on an Intel
Mac...
Thanks, Anders. I wonder if you could cross-compile for Intel on
your PPC Mac. I'm attaching the script I use to do it the other way
around; perhaps that would help you figure out how to go the other
way.
