Re: Lyx Installation problem on Mac OS X
I tried running the OSX installer directly and the installation seems to go through but then there are other problems that prevent me from opening a document or starting a new one. Thanks for the help, but I think I'm going to give up on LyX 1.6 since my current installation of 1.5 works.

I try to install Lyx 1.6.1 from the Mac OS X binary, and when I run the Lyx-installer I get the following error: AppleScript Error sh: python: command not found I definitely have python installed.
