When I did the same thing (loaded backport 2.3.2 on top of my

John, how did you do it in detail? I downloaded 2.3.2 in my
Download folder. How do I make sure it is installed at the same
place as the old lyx? Wolfgang
If you are on debian why not use debian way?
1. add stretch-backports to your /etc/apt/sources.list, line like:
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian stretch-backports main
2. update package database
apt-get update
3. install to current lyx stable:
apt-get -t stretch-backports install lyx
Does it work for you?

Thanks, Pavel, for your advice. I had used synaptic for my LinuxMint so
far, and was wondering about the small red ! signs on it. Now I found
out that Mint uses a special "mintupdate" which made the synaptic signs
disappear and updated quite a number of my programs, among them lyx.
Thats very good. Learned again!
