Where did you get it?  I found lyx-1.1.6fix4-133.src.rpm on fr2 
[rpmfind]  I was able to get it to rebuild - it took forever (~45 
mins) - but then it says that it requires te_latex.  But I already 
have tetex-latex installed, which should be about the same thing, 
right?  I think I've wandered into a distinction between SuSE and 
other versions.  Suggestions?  Anyone know of any other RPM versions 
of 1.1.6fix4 around?

Re: Links vs. -nodeps for install LYX on RH7.3?

2002-10-29 Thread Carole Womeldorf
I located a SuSE RPM that has BOTH libforms.so.0.88 and  
libforms.so.0.89 included in it - I found it referenced online, but 
couldn't find it on the web.  Luckily I found it on my SuSE disks 
from my other computer:  xforms-0.89-525.i386.rpm

However the libstdc++-libc6.1-2.so.3 is more problematic.  Apparently 
RH7.3 installs newer versions that lyx 1.2.1 isn't happy with AND 
installing the older version isn't permitted because it conflicts 
with the newer version.  

HAS ANYONE GOTTEN LYX TO WORK ON RH 7.3?  Please help.

 C) lyx-1.2.1-1rh8-xforms089.i386.rpm

With each I get dependency errors - 

A) [root@Lyx_Install]# rpm -Uvh --test lyx-1.2.0-3.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
xdvi is needed by lyx-1.2.0-3
libAiksaurus.so.0   is needed by lyx-1.2.0-3
libstdc++.so.2.10   is needed by lyx-1.2.0-3
Aiksaurus   is needed by lyx-1.2.0-3
B)  [root@Lyx_Install]# rpm -Uvh lyx-1.2.1-1.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
libforms.so.0.88 is needed by lyx-1.2.1-1
libstdc++-libc6.1-2.so.3 is needed by lyx-1.2.1-1
C)  [root@Lyx_Install]# rpm -Uvh lyx-1.2.1-1rh8-xforms089.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
libgcc_s.so.1   is needed by lyx-1.2.1-1
libgcc_s.so.1(GCC_3.0)   is needed by lyx-1.2.1-1
libstdc++.so.5   is needed by lyx-1.2.1-1
libstdc++.so.5(GLIBCPP_3.2)   is needed by lyx-1.2.1-1

(B) with the fewest problems, is most promising AND I do have 
installed: 
./usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3
./usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2
and 
./usr/X11R6/lib/libforms.so.0.89

So I guess the reasonable response is go with (B), the  
lyx-1.2.1-1.i386.rpm file.
AND use -nodeps.

OR Would it be helpful to create the following links:

ln -s libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3   libstdc++-libc6.2-1.so.3
ln -s libforms.so.0.89  libforms.so.0.88
