Building LyX on Cygwin
======================
To build lyx, you will need to install the following cygwin packages
gcc-core libhunspell-devel libQt5X11Extras-devel
gcc-g++ libiconv-devel pkg-config
gzip libQt5Core-devel python2
gettext-devel libQt5Gui-devel python3
libaspell-devel libQt5Svg-devel
Building LyX on cygwin does not differ from building lyx on any typical
posix system, so you are referred to the INSTALL file.
When lyx is built as outlined above, it will be a X-Window application,
so you will need a X-server for running it. It is possible to build lyx
as a cygwin application but using the native Windows GDI backend instead
of X11. You are referred to the lyx wiki for instructions:

Many thanks to Steven van Dijk, Claus Hentschel and Miyata Shigeru for
starting the porting business, and Enrico Forestieri for many cygwin-related
improvements.
