distcheck is autotools not cmake target. Since we (still) build tarballs via automake it would be worth using this target. I just tried running make distcheck here and immediately got error, which is exactly why your machinery could be useful! Simply running distcheck once a day and send email to lyx-devel in case of error. Otherwise it can take quite some time to find the offender (the error messages are sometimes convoluted). > There seems to be RSS feeds available right now (see bottom right corner of > https://ci.inria.fr/lyx/ ) that I was able to add to my RSS reader ( > http://theoldreader.com) .

If you don't have SMTP machinery working on that machine I can send you simple shell script that would do the sending job. You just need port 25 open & SMTP server accepting us. Pavel PS: the current err if it rings bell to someone, I guess just entry in makefile is missing: make[1]: *** No rule to make target `export/ja/wrong_auto_encoding.lyx', needed
