I tried to recompile lyx-1.4.2 packages for Dapper using the new Debian

number for lyx-common found). So I recompiled myself and used
checkinstall to produce an interim package. You can get it here:
http://www.math.nyu.edu/faculty/kleeman/dapper/lyx-1.4.2_1.4.2-1_i386.deb
Before you install it (use sudo dpkg -i lyx-1.4.2_1.4.2-1_i386.deb) make
sure that the standard dapper lyx packages are not installed (there are
several).
Is that package based on the Debian 1.4.2-1 oder -2 version?
-1 was br0ken so you should not use that one.

Sven,
Tried that as well with the same error:

dh_compress

I noticed that I had to force the dpkg-buildpackage with the -d flag
because I got the following dependency issue:
>dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
dpkg-buildpackage: source package is lyx
dpkg-buildpackage: source version is 1.4.2-2
dpkg-buildpackage: source changed by Per Olofsson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
dpkg-buildpackage: host architecture i386
dpkg-checkbuilddeps: Unmet build dependencies: dpkg-dev (>= 1.13.19)
dpkg-buildpackage: Build dependencies/conflicts unsatisfied; aborting.
dpkg-buildpackage: (Use -d flag to override.)
Is there possibly a change in dpkg-dev which could be causing this problem?
