Problem with obtaining Mandrake rpm of LyX 1.3.4
Dear All Angus has kindly suggested me the following to obtain the Mandrake 9.2 rpm for LyX 1.3.4: $ cd /home/paul/lyx-1.3.4 $ ./autogen.sh $ mkdir build $ ./configure $ make rpmdist However, when I ./configure, after a lot of non-relevant verbose, I get the following: The following problems have been detected by configure. Please check the messages below before running 'make'. (see the section 'Problems' in the INSTALL file) ** Cannot find libforms or libxforms. Please check that the xforms library is correctly installed on your system. ** Cannot find forms.h. Please check that the forms library is correctly installed on your system. [EMAIL PROTECTED] lyx-1.3.4]# I have already installed the two packages (xforms and forms), but I do not see any progress after that, I mean, everything remains as before. Could someone here please help me? Thank you a lot in advance! Paul _ It's fast, it's easy and it's free. Get MSN Messenger today! http://www.msn.co.uk/messenger

I have just mentioned xforms (here, I also thank Andre's reply) because I got an error message with the mysterious name xforms! Thanks, Jean-Marc!
