It's actually simpler than what you've already done. If you use

it's done. If you use fink (or Fink Commander) it's equally easy.

Then follow the instructions on the lyx webpage, which are
straightforward:

svn co svn://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/trunk lyx-devel
cd lyx-devel

Once you've got the sources, you'll need to run ./autogen.sh, then
configure (with the same options you used for beta1), and make.

To update the sources, simply cd to the lyx-devel directory and enter:

svn up

You can then recompile (usually -- but not always -- skipping
configure and going straight to make).

Well, after hours and hours and hours of compiling it seems I've come to the same result as Bennett. When compiling LyX1.5.0svn I get an error saying "qt
4 library not found !". Is this the same issue you found Bennett?

Actually, no, though I think it was the problem Anders Ekberg found (I think also on PPC Mac); I'm not sure what the cause of that is.

I wasn't able even to compile Qt-4.3beta, though I haven't had time to try very hard.
