I'm used to compile the stable lyx sources (tar.bz) in Ubuntu, but
yesterday I have installed for the first time a svn LyX version.
It's working fine, by now.

You can follow the directions in
http://www.lyx.org/HowToUseSVN  items 4, 5, 6.
and the INSTALL and INSTALL.autoconf files included in sources.

In short, you get the sources with
1. svn co svn://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/trunk lyx-devel
and then, in the lyx-devel directory
2. ./autoconf.sh
3. ./configure --with-version-suffix #this allows several independent versions
4. make
5. sudo make install

If ever you have compiled lyx.tar.gz/bz sources your system should be right.
If not, probably you need install a bunch of devel packages.

Ignacio
