Hello,
I finally (think we have) fixed the locale problem which has been
plaguing german users. Therefore, I think it will be nice to release
1.1.5fix2 as soon as possible.
Therefore, as usual, I'd be glad if some of you could take the time to
check it out (or fix a bug or two if you are feeling adventurous). Let
me recall that all these fixes have been checked in the branch
lyx-1_1_5, which you can get with the command
cvs checkout -d lyx-1_1_5 -r lyx-1_1_5 lyx-devel
I advise those of you who want the 1.1.5 series to stabilize rapidly
to check out this branch and try it out. As far as I know, it cannot
be worse than 1.1.5fix1, anyway.

Remaining problems
==================
These are bugs which are probably small, and mostly appeared recently.
Good clients for a fix release. Note that they exist in 1.1.6 too, so
we'll have to fix them eventually. Please send me references to the
ones I forgot.
- clipboard-related crashes

- we should check when writing to a stream failed due to not enough
disk space (how?)

http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org/msg12733.html
- crash when changing layout
http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org/msg13171.html
- sometimes workAreaButtonRelease is called with button == 0 (this has
already been discussed, but not fixed as far as I know)
http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org/msg12987.html
- When the cursor is between two spaces, then the Shift-Cursor
selection keys will lead to a mangled selection (on screen)
http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org/msg12431.html
- the documentation should be reviewed to indicate the 1.1.5fix2 is a
stable release (should some english-speaking volunteer have a look?).
- mangled minibuffer after resizing the main window. I can't find a
reference, but the effect is obvious (and recent). Could it be a
consequence of Lars' recent changes to scrollbars? Or simply a flaw
of the WorkArea? More generally, the minibuffer is strange since
when you click in it, the text does not disappear.
