Re: ANNOUNCE: LyX version 2.0.0 (alpha 1)

[Jose Quesada]

Thanks Micha, that fixes it for me.
I'd love if it would mark the lack of capitalization beginning a
sentence as an error, but no biggie.
I think I'm going to try to use 2.0 fulltime.
Since it seems that it's not backwards compatible, are there any
precautions I should take? i.e. never open a 1.6.4 file on it?
Best,
-Jose

 Sounds to me like you didn't have the aspell development libraries (or other
 spell developement libraries) when configuring. I also had that problem under
 linux (debian). I installed libaspell-dev and now spelling is working. Not 
 sure
 what the right package is under OsX or how to install it though.

It should be backwards compatible, because you can always save your file
in the 1.6.x file format.

Just be warned that there might be serious bugs in 2.0.0 from time to
time.

For now, we do not advice to use it for serious work.

 I guess you're using the LyX-2.0.0alpha1.dmg I build on Snow Leopard.
 
 You're right, no aspell support :(
 I didn't read carefully enough this part of configure output:
 
 checking aspell.h usability... yes
 checking aspell.h presence... yes
 checking for aspell.h... yes
 checking for new_aspell_config in -laspell... no
 checking whether to use aspell... no
 
 So I looked for the reason and found that configure detected the headers of 
 aspell but did not find the library.

Thanks for this clarification and for the build anyway.

Sebastian

 When trying to improve the situation I learned that my universal aspell 
 library from macports is like that:
 
 % file /opt/local/lib/libaspell.dylib 
 /opt/local/lib/libaspell.dylib: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures
 /opt/local/lib/libaspell.dylib (for architecture x86_64): Mach-O 64-bit 
 dynamically linked shared library x86_64
 /opt/local/lib/libaspell.dylib (for architecture i386):   Mach-O 
 dynamically linked shared library i386
 
 So in fact I cannot build a ppc version of LyX with aspell now. I'll see what 
 I can do...

I could not get the inline spelling working. Is this disabled on this
