So what's the best way to have both a debug-enabled and a
plain vanilla lyx installed?
Don't install the debug version. You can run it from where you compiled
it. I just use a little script:
#!/bin/bash
USERDIR=/home/rgheck/dev/lyxdirs/lyxbranch/
if [ -e $USERDIR/.lyxpipe.in ]; then rm $USERDIR/.lyxpipe.*; fi
/cvs/lyx16/src/lyx -userdir $USERDIR $* -geometry 1024x1024+100+100;
if [ -f $OFFENDER ]; then rm $OFFENDER; fi
saved as "lyx16" to run the debug-enabled version.

I didn't make myself clear, I am afraid. What I meant was:
I never installed the debuge-enabled binary, I am running ot fromt the src
subdir in the lys-src directory. But I am not sure (see previous messages) if
the previously installed LyX version is or is not debug-enabled. So I want to
reinstall it from scratch. Two options:
1. I have to redownload the sources, unpack them in another dir, conf/make/
install
2. I can just take the debug-enabled compiled lyx binary out of the existing
source tree, make clean, re-cong, / make / install
Either way should do. Here's what I do: I have two separate trees, one
called lyx-pristine, one called lyx16. The former is the non-debug build
linked to the lyx16 svn tree; I have a cron job that keeps it updated,
and I recompile it and install it from time to time. The other is the
same tree but a debug build. It never gets installed but is run from the
script.
