Yes this would be best. I only know how to make .deb files. The branch
is 'master' (which is the default branch I believe). Our master branch
is what will become 2.2.0. It would be great if you could test. From
what I understand, we (well not I but other developers) have committed
several fixes to improve LyX for high density display, but I don't think
any developers actually have a high density display to test it.
Actually, I think maybe we did get some testing on Mac, but it would be
great to have feedback from a Linux user.

Do note, however, that the master branch is the development branch, so
usual warnings apply. That said, I use it for all of my work (yes, I am
a daredevil) in order to test.
