6. Troubleshooting
6. Other versions of lyx (1.4.x)
================================
The scons build system is not yet distributed with lyx1.4.x. Support for
the qt2 frontend of lyx1.4.x is, however, added to the trunk (1.5.x). If
you have checked out both 1.4.x and the trunk, you can build lyx 1.4.x
using commands similar to
> cd lyx-1.4.x
> scons -f ../lyx-1.5.x/development/scons/SConstruct
Note that lyx 1.4.x does not use the latest version of the boost library
so option boost=included is recommended.
