I'm trying to get aiksaurus to work with lyx-1.4.0-cvs on the Mac. My aim is to place the aiksaurus files in the LyX.app bundle so that LyX/Mac can be easily distributed with aiksaurus support.

I've configured aiksaurus with "--prefix=/Applications/LyX.app/Contents/Resources" and "--enable-static", and it installs just fine. With a recompile (configuring it with "--with-extra-prefix=/Applications/LyX.app/Contents/Resources"), LyX recognizes its presence there, and the thesaurus works fine.

The trouble I'm having is that if the LyX.app bundle is moved from /Applications (which Mac users normally are used to being able to do), accessing the thesaurus from within LyX causes a crash. Any suggestions for how to get this to work?

Thanks.
