It is the same problem that has been reported before by others and myself. For example: http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@lists.lyx.org/msg59542.html At the time, the documentation stated that the Mac code depended on the latest version of OSX 10.4. And, indeed, it failed to compile when I had a go but I did not persevere for long given the ridiculous length of time lyx takes to compile on a laptop and the documentation telling me it would not work. What seemed more likely to succeed was building an X version and I had a bit of a go although I was/am a bit vague about what to set in the configure file. I managed to get to this point: bolt:~/pub/lyx-1.5.2 andy$ make Making all in config make[1]: Nothing to be done for `all'.
