Thanks, Scott.
Hi Wolfgang, please bottom post (as asked for in our list netiquette
[1]).
sorry!
Next question: I tried ./configure
with no success, although I am root.
You should only need root privilege if you want to install.
root@wolfgang-Mr-Whisper-Ultra-SSD-II:/mnt/sdb/we/Lyx2-2/lyx-2.2.0rc1#
./configure
bash: ./configure: Keine Berechtigung
What is wrong?
Am I in the wrong directory (the one where I unpyked the package)?
Wolfgang
I would suggest the following:
as a user (not root), download the tar ball to a directory you know you
have access to. Extract it to another directory you have access to, for
example ~/Desktop. Note that this is *not* the directory where LyX will
be installed to.
Then, cd to that directory (again, as user, no root). Now does
./configure
work?

I followed your advice, copied the tar to my Desktop and extracted it,
checked the access:
we@wolfgang-Mr-Whisper-Ultra-SSD-II:/mnt/sdb/we/Desktop$ ls -l
insgesamt 4
drwxr-xr-x 11 we we 4096 Apr 12 03:31 lyx-2.2.0rc1
and checked also configure:
ls -l configure
-rwxrwxrwx 1 we we 408602 Apr 12 03:31 configure
but still have no access:
we@wolfgang-Mr-Whisper-Ultra-SSD-II:/mnt/sdb/we/Desktop/lyx-2.2.0rc1$
./configure
bash: ./configure: Keine Berechtigung
I am afraid I do something basic wrongly
I do not want to waste your time and will try tonight to solve it by
asking my son.
Thanks for your help and patience
Wolfgang
