Hi Andre',

Sorry, I should have referenced my other note in this one;
I'm using a SuSE 7.3 installation, by now apparently too old.
Its gcc is gcc-2.95.3-124, with qt-2.3.1-60.
When I tried to install LyX 1.3.2 I got:

  rpm -U --test lyx-1.3.2-1suse81-qt.i386.rpm
  error: failed dependencies:

  libstdc++.so.5(CXXABI_1.2) is needed by lyx-1.3.2-1_qt
  libstdc++.so.5(GLIBCPP_3.2) is needed by lyx-1.3.2-1_qt

Checking my /usr/lib, I see:

which sounds a long way from libstdc++.so.5 and friends.
(I don't know why rpm didn't find the liblcms.so symlink to liblcms.so.1.0.7)

I know it would be nice to upgrade to the latest, especially LyX, but
I also know that upgrading gcc and the libs is not trivial without
known-compatible versions of everything on a nice CD, so I hesitate,
and decided to fall back to trusty old LyX 1.1.5 until I can download
(over a tenuous 56K line) all the gcc/libs and verify their

if the only problem is missing RPMs for your system you should try these (qt
