Hi Uwe,

I'd appreciate if you used an explicit name of your choice like 'Uwe's 
LyXWinInstaller' or 'the great unofficial LyXWinInstaller' to make sure 
that people understand the difference between this and the official 
installer.


Also, it would be good if it was possible from Help>About to see what 
installer was used, to ease support.

[announce] new location and version of the LyXWinInstaller

2019-03-31 Thread Uwe Stöhr

Dear LyXers,

as you might have noticed, I don't provide any official LyX for Windows
installers since a while due to fundamental differences with other
developers how LyX should be installed under Windows.

Due to requests from LyX users I provided now an installer for LyX 2.3.2
with the old functionality that allows to get a fully functional LyX
directly after running the installer.
You can download the installer either from here:
https://github.com/donovaly/LyXWinInstaller/releases
or
http://ftp.lyx.de/LyXWinInstaller/
or
https://sourceforge.net/projects/lyxwininstaller/files/LyXWinInstaller/

These are the changed to my last installer which I built for LyX 2.3.0:

- installs LyX 2.3.2
- since this installer now there is no longer the need to update MiKTeX
- new dictionary for Georgian
- updated thesaurus for Ukrainian
- updated spell checker dictionaries for English, Turkmen and Ukrainian
- removed support for TeXLive 2014
- removed support for MiKTeX 2.8
- updated to MiKTeX 2.9 build 7021
- updated to Python 2.7.16
- updated to ImageMagick 7.0.8-27
- updated to Ghostscript 9.26
- updated to NSIS 3.0.4
- updated to Qt 5.9.7

regards Uwe
