Lars or Jean-Marc, Can you update the attached on the LyX sites?
It mentions the Redhat-6.2 broken egcs compiler. -- Kayvan A. Sylvan | Proud husband of | Father to my kids: Sylvan Associates, Inc. | Laura Isabella Sylvan | Katherine Yelena (8/8/89) http://sylvan.com/~kayvan | "crown of her husband" | Robin Gregory (2/28/92)
The following files are available: lyx-1.2.0-1.i386.rpm ...................... For Redhat 6.2 and xforms-0.88 lyx-1.2.0-1rh73-xforms089.i386.rpm ........ For Redhat 7.3 and xforms-0.89 Note that Redhat-6.2 uses broken compilers (egcs) and must be updated to at least gcc-2.95.1 to work with LyX. Use the following RPMs from rpmfind (in directory ftp://speakeasy.rpmfind.net/linux/contrib/libc6/i386) gcc-2.95.1-3.i386.rpm gcc-c++-2.95.1-3.i386.rpm Or you can regenerate the RPM for your system using the SRPM: ftp://contrib.redhat.com/pub/contrib/libc6/SRPMS/gcc-2.95.1-3.src.rpm 1) Read the xforms-README file for important information about xforms and LyX. 2) The default installation prefix is `/usr'. If you want to change this, just specify a different prefix using the `--prefix' flag to rpm. For example, rpm -Uvh --prefix /opt lyx-1.2.0-1.i386.rpm installs with /opt prefix. 3) The tex related files are installed in a place that tetex can find them on a default RedHat system. If you have a different TeX distribution or teTeX is installed by hand (without RPM) you may need to move some files around and run "texhash" In some cases, you may need to install using the `--nodeps' option, like rpm -Uvh --nodeps lyx-1.2.0-1.i386.rpm 4) My system is a RedHat Linux/GNU 6.2. If you have problems running the binary rpm (e.g. you have an older RH system with older C library), then you should have no problem compiling from the src.rpm. To do this, do rpm --rebuild lyx-1.2.0-1.src.rpm cd /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386 rpm -Uvh lyx-1.2.0-1.i386.rpm (or perhaps in the last step you need to use the `--nodeps' and/or the `--oldpackage' options; see 3) above). Note that building lyx requires about 35M free space on your disk. ---Kayvan A. Sylvan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Thanks to: * Mate Wierdl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> who did the initial work on the RPMS * Milos Komarcevic <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> for the RH 7.3 RPM.
