Fixed an hour or so ago by Jean-Marc. There may be some delay before the
updated code propagates through to the anoncvs mirror.

You don't need to install it to use it. Personally, I have a symlink
$HOME/bin/qlyxcvs that points to $HOME/lyx/devel/build/src/lyx-qt . Works
like a charm.

You'll be unable to run "make install" successfully until the tex2lyx
problem is resolved.
