It really is very easy, and (honestly) it is of great help to us when
people use the stable development branch for regular work. It's meant to
be very stable, and normally is, but there are times we make mistakes.
These tend to become clear pretty quickly. And if one is building
oneself, it's always possible, if a 'mistake' arises, to step back to
some previous version.

Thanks, Riki, I've built LyX in the past but it's been years! (Have
recently returned to Linux after many years on OS X/macOS.) Offer of help
appreciated. 2.3.0-1 is currently fine, but will endeavor to build it

Liviu Andronic has provided a PPA for LyX for a while now, but I haven't
seen him on the list for a little while.

Note that it is pretty easy to build LyX yourself on Linux. I can give
instructions if you need them. The main thing is just getting the build
dependencies installed. I think "apt-get build-deps lyx" will do that,
though I'm not sure if that gives you Qt4 or Qt5.

Liviu, in the future would it help if we send you an email when a new

CMake Ubuntu packages

CMake has CPack to generate .deb and other packages,
but does anybody know the relation to the packages
for Ubuntu, often found in ppa repositories? Are both

1.) No, they are not identical. For debian this is a different build process ...
