Installation of fontconfig is mostly a distribution issue - not a 
lyx issue.  You neglected to mention your distibution.

For me - works happily under both redhet 8 and 9.
 
distribution-specific instructions would be unfortunate 
and work to maintain , but I don't see a lot of options.

In Ximians' case - as a specialist GUI kind-of provider, 
requesting to Ximian to add lyx to their packages could 
be one way..

 Reading through the archive you get the same answers

 me).
 
 1. install the fonts : needs fontconfig
 2. install fontconfig : red carpet won't do it.
 3. tried everything possible to install from source
 fails for both qt and xforms
 
 The fact that so many people have difficulties with
 this shouldn't irritate others on the list. And
 perhaps someone might then even suggest a real

longtables

2003-07-20 Thread Holger Zebner
Hi list,
I have a problem with longtables.
All tables are placed inside floats and have a caption.
When I tick in the table dialog at the longtable box the first table in my 
document will be counted as No. 2 (Table 2) and the next one Table 3. 
When I deselect the longtable option the 1rst table gets counted 
correctly as No. 1.
Why doesen't the counting of tables work with the first table as a longtable?

Thanks and Greetings
Holger

Thanks to everyone who replied. In the end the only
way to install fontfig under SuSE/XD2 was with rpm
--nodeps --force. It seems to work.
