I am using Ubuntu Linux 5.04. I am trying to compile and install Lyx 1.3.5 and 1.3.6 with ./configure --with-frontend=qt --with-qt-dir=/usr/share/qt3 --prefix=/usr make sudo checkinstall
I get following problem: Lyx is trying to overwrite fonts, which are part of already installed tetex-extra 2.0.2c-3 in the folder below: /usr/share/texmf/fonts/type1/bluesky/cm (for example cmtex9.pfb) Therefore the debian package created cannot be installed, unless 1. I use sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite lyx-...deb or 2. remove tetex-extra, then I have same problems to install tetex-extra after installation of lyx I also tried to create .deb pack with the patch on http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/Linux The .deb package cannot be created, I get following errors: libtool: link: `package.lo' is not a valid libtool object make[4]: *** [libsupport.la] Error 1 make[4]: Leaving directory `/home/alex/lyx-1.3.6/build-tree-qt/src/support' make[3]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/alex/lyx-1.3.6/build-tree-qt/src' make[2]: *** [all] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/alex/lyx-1.3.6/build-tree-qt/src' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/alex/lyx-1.3.6/build-tree-qt' make: *** [debian/build-stamp] Error 2 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/lyx-1.3.6$
