Dear Lyxers,
(1) I downloaded the following files:
lyx-1.1.6-1.i386.rpm
libXpm-4.7.tar.gz
bxform-089-glibc2.1.tgz
(2) I executed the following command:
tar xvfz bxform-089-glibc2.1.tgz
This created the directory xforms/
(3) I cd'ed into the directory xforms and executed
the following command:
make
No error messages. Everything seemed to be okay.
(4) I executed the following commands:
cd ..
tar xvfz libXpm-4.7.tar.gz
This created the directory xpm-3.4g/
(5) I cd'ed into the newly-created directory and
executed the following command:
xmkmf
and got the following output:
imake -DUseInstalled -I/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config
Next I executed the following command:
make Makefiles
and got the following output:

Next I executed the following command:
make
No error messages. All seemed to go well.
(6) I cd'ed into the xforms/DEMOS directory and executed
./demo
and got the following error message:
./demo: error in loading shared libraries: libforms.so.0.89:
cannot open shared object file:
No such file or directory
(7) rpm -i lyx-1.1.6-1.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
xforms >= 0.88 is needed by lyx-1.1.6-1
libforms.so.0.88 is needed by lyx-1.1.6-1
What's going wrong? Can somebody help me with this? I am running Red
Hat Linux 6.2, kernel 2.2.14-12 (glibc-2.1.3-15) on a Pentium III.
I am using the Kde desktop environment.
Thanks,
Gautam.
