Fail to verify tarball

2019-03-26 Thread Erik Apostol 
I try to verify the signature of the newly downloaded LyX tarball as the
instruction on the LyX website:
gpg --recv-keys FE66471B43559707AFDAD955DE7A44FAC7FB382D
Unfortunately, gpg replies
gpg: no keyserver known (use option --keyserver)
gpg: keyserver receive failed: bad URI
Do I really need to add a keyserver? So what is the address of the
keyserver?

Just to be super clear: The compilers used are different, so the
binaries are different. But there should (hopefully) not be any
noticeable difference to users.

Yes, this is the same folder.
The differences in the installers are how the necessary third-party
programs are handled. LyX itself is identical since I only build from
the official LyX release source code.

Re: Problems with bibliography generation

2019-03-26 Thread Dr Eberhard Lisse 
The only problem I can see in the malformed BIB file.

It does not load into BibDesk on the Mac.

The clean one does, and works perfectly with the LyX file.

If a BIB file can't be found, browse for it which has always worked for me.

If you are on debian why not use debian way?

1. add stretch-backports to your /etc/apt/sources.list, line like:
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian stretch-backports main

2. update package database
apt-get update

3. install to current lyx stable:
apt-get -t stretch-backports install lyx

Does it work for you?

You can always install multiple versions using GNU Stow.

I do not want to keep 2.2.2, but only the new 2.3.2. So my question 
boils down to:


Does the configure put the lyx stuff at the right places and the old lyx 
stuff there is removed/overwritten?
