Thank you!

You can see my build script here:

https://github.com/scottkosty/lyx-tester/blob/master/lyxbuild

If you want, you can have a completely automatic installation of
dependencies and building of LyX starting from a fresh Ubuntu
installation with one command:
https://github.com/scottkosty/lyx-tester
I only recommend that on a virtual box though. It has not been tested
except for me (although I use it regularly).
Note that the script will also run all the ctests, which takes a long
time (I can disable this for you if you want though). Thus, if you do
try this, you might want to leave it overnight.

I'd be happy to add support into the script of building Qt from source
if that would help.

I've been using 14.04 since it came out. I don't know if there's
anything that requires it, but let me know if you have problems and
I'll take a look.

Best,

Scott
