Nothing, I just never got any reply.

Weird. Except for the messages of today and yesterday and one message you CCed about the dependency package, I did not receive any mails. I do receive your messages now, so it seems to be solved.

That's why you need a bugzilla account. All new installer bugs are then not only CCed to me, but also to you.

I'll have a look at it. Do you know how to forward mails from a lyx.org address to another mailbox? I need to have some way to separate Bugzilla mail from other messages.

I cannot find anything about this in trunk. You implemented a feature that I don't know about and that is not in SVN, so what do you expect?

There have been discussions about this on the developers list and it's also in the new features list. I also mentioned this is one of the earlier discussions about the installers.

Combined with the features of LyX 1.6, it allows you to paste graphics from almost any Windows application directly into LyX.

I now googled our Wiki and found

I'll add this to my installer, but why is its source code not in trunk?

As far as I know, the source code of external utilities is not usually added to SVN, right?

I think it's a waste of time that we are duplicating features in two separate sets of installers. The bundling of Imagemagick and Ghostscript in my installers works very well and is also compatible with user account that do not have administrator privileges. So why is it still not possible to finally merge the installers?
