Piece of code in my « makelyx » command to install and test a new version
while protecting the current one (1.1.5):
cp /usr/local/bin/lyx /usr/local/bin/lyx-1.1.5
cp /usr/local/bin/reLyX /usr/local/bin/reLyX-1.1.5
gmake install
cp /usr/local/bin/lyx /usr/local/bin/lyx-1.1.6
strip /usr/local/bin/lyx-1.1.6
cp /usr/local/bin/reLyX /usr/local/bin/reLyX-1.1.6
cp /usr/local/bin/lyx-1.1.5 /usr/local/bin/lyx
cp /usr/local/bin/reLyX-1.1.5 /usr/local/bin/reLyX
Of course, lyx executable is 1.1.6 for a few seconds...
The sharable part is in /usr/local/share/1.1.6 all right.
