 No it does not. :-)
 The version available in extras is 1.3.6. There was some miscommunication
previously and that was why only 1.3.5 was available, for the last 2 weeks
this has been solved.

If there is any problem with yum provided version in FC-[345] please report
it here and I will have a look a push the fixes to Fedora Extras.

I installed Lyx more than two weeks ago on FC4 using yum and
knew it was just a matter of time before the repository was updated.
Later in the thread, Peter Flynn mentioned that he used yum to
install Lyx and I could tell the Lyx files had been updated to 1.3.6.
But that was just after I downloaded and installed rpms from the
internet to provide Lyx 1.3.6 which gets around overwriting his
previously installed tugboat tetex live install by yum. Peter did that
with -nodeps which could extend past the tetex dependency, I think,
because one probably still needs latex-xft-fonts. Peter's current email
description needs clarifying to serve as newcomer documentation.
(Intended to benefit newish others reading this, not pointed at Peter.)

Anyway, Peter approved of yum's design (provides a warning) and
making a Dsl connection on FC4 is maybe easier than with Win XP.
I notice rpmfind has "NEW" to distinguish updates, which is nice.
