Dear cygwin-apps,
I was notified about a postinstall error in the lyx 1.6.6 package that
I prepared about two years ago. I have retired from the lyx
development team but since no one picked up my role as the cygwin
maintainer, I have prepared a cygwin package for lyx 2.0.5.1, which
can be downloaded from http://www.houstonbioinformatics.org/temp/.
Please let me know if it works as expected because the whole process
seems to be a bit different from two years ago.
Cheers,
Bo

Hi, Marco,
I retired from the lyx development team a few years ago and have
stopped maintaining its cygwin build. I have asked around but nobody
seemed to be interested in taking over my role. Anyway, if the 1.6.6
building is not working properly, I will try to update it to the
latest version in the next few weeks.

Hi Bo,
if you are not planning to maintain anymore the package,
you should declare it as orphan, so we can officially
look for a new maintainer
About this package, it builds fine but the dependencies are wrong
"requires: cygwin aspell python libQtCore4 libQtGui4 libintl8 gettext gv
tetex tetex-base tetex-bin ImageMagick ghostscript-fonts-std
font-adobe-dpi75 libgcc1 libiconv2 libintl8 libstdc++6 libX11_6 zlib0"
/etc/postinstall/lyx.sh requires
/usr/bin/fc-cache = fontconfig
All tetex* are now obsolete, we are now using texlive
The current tetex depends will pull:
tetex -> texlive-collection-basic
tetex-bin -> texlive texlive-collection-basic texlive-collection-binextra
tetex-base -> texlive-collection-binextra
texlive-collection-fontsrecommended texlive-collection-fontutils
texlive-collection-genericrecommended
texlive-collection-latexrecommended texlive-collection-metapost
texlive-collection-texinfo
Probably a trimming is possible.
Additional question about configure.py and /usr/share/lyx/scripts/*py
I assume you need to add python or are they only optional ?
Regards
Marco
