That's just a directory name thing. CVS isn't very smart when it comes to renaming things or adding directories. I build LyX against the QT_WIN32_3_3_BRANCH branch of the qtwin project. Grab it with the cvs command: $ cvs -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/qtwin \ login <press Enter when asked for a password> $ cvs -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/qtwin \ checkout -r QT_WIN32_3_3_BRANCH qt-3 Have a look at development/Win32/packaging/build_lyxwin.sh to see what needs to be done to build LyX using the MinGW/MSYS environment. In truth, I haven't used this with 1.4 for ages because I tend to use the MSVS.Net 2003 compiler (there's a .sln file in development/Win32). However, it certainly used to work. (You might want to add "--disable-stdlib-debug" to the options passed to the LyX configure script; it speeds up LyX's execution by an order of magnitude.) -- Angus
