Building from bz2 versus gz archives on LyX 1.3.3

[Marc Jeffrey Driftmeyer]

I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced similar observations with 
the bz2 versus gz archives of LyX 1.3.3.

I spent over a week tweaking with Qt 3.2.1 and LyX just to run the Qt 
interface.

It ranged from the incompatible libjpeg and libpng libraries for Qt 
which after trying several combinations eventually got sorted out and 
I've kepted in a text file for future builds of Qt, to LyX throwing 
Illegal operations with zero feedback, even in debug mode.

This was all from using the bz2 archive.  I ran an md5sum but I couldn't 
find anywhere on the lyx ftp site a verifiable checksum to see if the 
archive may have been corrupted or my version of bzip2 (presently 1.02) 
conflicts with the bzip2 version used to make the archive.

So I downloaded the gz archive and ran the same configuration.

Ran make.

Ran ./lyx -dbg -any to specific dbg options.

Qt works well now and LyX 1.3.3 is not throwing illegal operations and 
just works.

The version of gzip I'm running is 1.3.5 on Debian Unstable.

Any thoughts?

Sincerely,
