Hi.

Just curious.  If you are already using fink, then why do you need to
compile Lyx separately?

If you are using 0.5.0 version of fink, then Lyx 1.2.1 is provided as a
pre-complied binary that can be installed using dselect.  If for some
reason you want to compile from source, then you can do this via fink
- - -- "fink install lyx" will compile version 1.2.1 from source.

If you have a version of fink prior to 0.5.0 -- 0.4.1 for example --
then I can see why you might want to compile fink from scratch since
the lyx that is offered as binaries in previous versions of fink is
1.1.6-fix3.  But, the files necessary to compile 1.2.1 are available in
the "unstable" directories.  Simply edit your fink.conf file (the
default location is /sw/etc/fink.conf) to include the "unstable" tree
then do "fink install lyx".  This will compile 1.2.1.

Since version 0.5.0 resolves the issues present in 0.4.1 with respect
to 10.2.x compatibility, you may want to upgrade to 0.5.0 in any case.

Hope this helps.
