Re: compiling lyx 2.0.1 Now: lyx2lyx
Thanks all who tried to help me with the compiling. I have given up for the time being and will wait until my son has time to help me (I am too old). I could not find zlib1g-dev under 'All' in synaptics. I am now using my notebook for completing a paper in lyx. However, the lyx file from the pc tells me, the DesmodiumPaperF.lyx is from a newer LyX-Version, and the lyx2lyx-Script could not convert the document. The Lyx version of the PC was 2.2.2, the version of the notebook 2.0.0svn. I tried separately in a shell lyx2lyx DesmodiumPaperF.lyx bash: lyx2lyx: command not found. What can I do?

The *-dev packages, on the other hand, include what you need to "link against" the library, that is, what you need to *compile* programs that use that library. So, to compile LyX, you need zlib1g-dev. The same goes for the X packages and Qt packages. E.g., as well as libqt4, you need libqt4-dev. Richard Thanks Richard for your careful explanation. Will try and report. Wolfgang

Have you closed all instances of synaptic, aptitute, etc., prior to running the command? Liviu
