What's new in version 1.2.3?
----------------------------
LyX 1.2.3 is a maintenance release. It mainly fixes a very bad bug
where configuring LyX as root could lead to deleting the /dev/null
special device (this does not impact users of prebuilt binaries).
Also, a bug where LyX would create zombie processes has been fixed.
** Updates
- updated italian User Guide
- updated french localization

If you have your own layout files, you may need to update them a little:
- floats are now defined in the layout file, using the "Float"..."End"
construct. In most cases, adding "Input stdfloats.inc" to your layout
file is enough.
- counters are also defined in the layout files, using the
"Counter"..."End" construct. As for floats, adding "Input
stdfloats.inc" is probably a good idea.
And of course, if you upgrade from LyX 1.1.x, remember that since
1.2.0, you have to do the following changes:
- all layout files should have a "DefaultStyle" entry
- the "Latex" font style does not exist anymore. If you really need

Of course, this means that you must have python (at least version 1.5)
installed in order to use LyX 1.3.0 with your old documents.
lyx2lyx also has the framework in place to be able to convert documents
to an earlier format. However, these converters have not yet been written
so older versions of LyX will NOT be able to read documents saved with
LyX 1.3.0.
If you were previously using the floatflt paragraph option to
wrap text around a figure, you will need to modify this for LyX 1.2.0
manually, as described in the manuals. Please ask on the lyx-users
list for assistance if you have trouble with this.
If you were previously (in LyX 1.1.x) using the floatflt paragraph
option to wrap text around a figure, it was necessary to modify this
for LyX 1.2.0 manually, as described in the manuals. The feature has
been re-implemented as "Floting figure" inset in 1.3.0. Old files will
be converted automatically, but you may want to convert the
1.2.x-style ERT constructs with the native solution (see section 3.8
of the Extended Features manual).
The babel package is now loaded after the user-defined
Since LyX 1.2.0, the babel package is loaded after the user-defined
preamble (because some packages really need to be loaded before
babel). If you relied, on babel being loaded before your own
definitions, you can add an extra "\usepackage{babel}" statement at
