You *did* uninstall LyX 1.3.6 before trying to install the new version?

Anyway, you can always fix the breakage by hand by typing

 cd "C:/Program Files/LyX/Resources/lyx"
 sh.exe configure

In an MSYS terminal. Probably also in a cmd.exe terminal too.


Lets take this over to lyx-devel.

I notice that Paul Rubin has already made developers aware of this issue. My issue is the same as his, and his report of sh.exe being invoked several times is perhaps confirmed by my Path prefix which has several instances of C:\msy1.0\bin (and a few others) whereas it used to appear only once.
Mentioning this issue on this list makes users aware of the
problem and how it can be fixed though it may help to read
