Hello, I tried to patch the sources on lyx-1.4.0pre1.tar.gz from the /devel directory on the mirrors, unsuccesfully... This far, I've been able to browse thru the cvs repository using your cgi on the wiki, and I installed succesfully wincvs.
So I tried to configure and run the old source on my mingw installation on win98, anyway, just to check if the thing worked in the first place. The thing failed. It complained about a missing suitable python interpreter (not distributed with mingw). At this point I'm tired, frustrated, and angry. Shall be back to this on Monday, after some restful real work on medieval philosophy (?). Occurs to me to try to compile tex2lyx on cygwin. It's far more reliable than barebones mingw.
