Hi everyone,
I would like to know if there is a solution to install lyx 1.64 or
even higher version under ubuntu 8.04.
By default, lyx 1.5.3 is installed in ubuntu 8.04, to be honest, I began
with lyx1.6.4, so now all of my old lyx documents could not be opened. In
addition, in the new version of lyx after 1.64 they really added more
useful
features, easy to use. So if any suggestion will be appreciated.
I assume you could compile 1.6.4 yourself? This is not that hard to do,
as long as you can install the various dependencies.

To get the dependencies, under ubuntu:
apt-get build-dep lyx
