Julien's step-by-step guide is exactly what I would recommend - except, of course, that I would use GNU STOW to install. As Julien indicates, this should not be a major problem if you stick to the naming conventions that he recommends. In answer to your specific question, you will have the 1.6 version installed. If you really want the trunk version (2.0 candidate) then the best thing would be to created a new directory with the 2.0 files. For example: svn co svn://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/trunk lyx20 Then cd lyx20 and follow Julien's instructions, naming the new version something distinctive: I use ./configure --with-version-suffix=20. All of this is confusing until you have done it a few times - don't give up :-). Cheers, Alan > > ?? > > Thanks gain > > Wolfgang -- Alan L Tyree http://www2.austlii.edu.au/~alan Tel: 04 2748 6206
