First, let me express my great appreciation to the LyX dev team for
their continuing hard work. And thanks to Bennett also, for
providing us with a Mac binary so quickly.
I've given the LyX/Mac 1.4 a quick spin on a MacBookPro, and can
report that it runs quite well in Rosetta. I haven't tried to do
anything to complicated, but so far there have been no major issues
and GUI performance is quite snappy. And since the underlying TeX
installation is now available in Intel binary, the document
compilation process is very quick.
One minor gotcha. Initially, LyX would not recognize the TeX
installation I had until I changed the PATH setting in Preferences.
Specifically:
/usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin-current
needs to be changed to:
/usr/local/teTeX/bin/i386-apple-darwin-current
(Assuming you used i-installer to install TeX. I don't think this
issue would affect a fink installation of TeX.)
Then reconfigure and restart (twice) and things should work just fine.
