experienced people would have know that one has to run autogen and not autogen.sh running autogen in ~/lyx-devel was not a good idea either, since wolfg...@wolfgang:~/lyx-devel$ autogen cd '/home/wolfgang/lyx-devel' cd '/home/wolfgang/lyx-devel' so one level up wolfg...@wolfgang:~$ autogen cd '/home/wolfgang/lyx-devel' and now I am waiting ... either I did again something wrong, or it takes quite some time. Is there a way to get messages about what is going on in the background? Wolfgang
