well, you haven't write a single word about Uwe :) you write about reliable source which leaves open doors for pretty wide interpretations and implications for binary packge itself. from what i know there are currently problems as far as unistalling previous lyx versions, issues with some cruft in system registry etc. so the breakage can be apparent only after you will install some later version. to announce availability of the packages without these warnings is somewhat misleading no matter how we interpret what reliable source means... > I have always found both "branches" very similar and have used many Uwe > binaries since 1.6 alpha with very little issues, if any.
