Hi !
I use lyx both at work (recent computer) and at home (old one). I tried
to compile lyx 1.1.6 at home but I couldn't build "src/lyx" because it
was too big (compiling lyx took all the 170Mo I had left on my
computer).
I had to remove lots of thinks (thank's dpkg for doing things so
neatly). Finally, I "installed-strip" and it works all right.
However, I don't want to do this again for 1.1.6fix1 (remove the
packages, compile, reinstall), and I'm sure you understand why.
The solution I was given was to build a debian package with my work
computer and to install it at home.
However, is there any option I could give "./configure" or "make" to
build a smaller file at home ?
Could anyone explain me what makes the difference between the strip
install (8Mo for bin/lyx) and the regular one (40Mo) ? Only debug
messages ? Could you tell me more ?
Thanks in advance,
Nicolas Sabouret
