Public release of LyX version 1.2.3
|
|
===================================
|
|
|
|
We are glad to announce the release of LyX 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.
|
|
|
|
In case you are wondering what LyX is, here is what
|
|
http://www.lyx.org/ has to say on the subject:
|
|
|
|
LyX is an advanced open source document processor that encourages an
|
|
approach to writing based on the structure of your documents, not their
|
|
appearance. LyX lets you concentrate on writing, leaving details of
|
|
visual layout to the software.
|
|
|
|
LyX runs on many Unix platforms (including MacOS X), OS/2, and under
|
|
Windows/Cygwin. Note that all these ports use the same xforms interface
|
|
and therefore need an X server.
|
|
|
|
The main LyX site is
|
|
|
|
ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/
|
|
|
|
with mirrors at
|
|
|
|

|
|

|

|
|

|
|
|
|
Prebuild binaries (mainly rpms for linux distributions) should soon be
|
|
available at
|
|
ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/bin/1.2.3
|
|
|
|
If you already have LyX 1.2.2 sources, you may want to apply the
|
|
following patch instead
|
|
ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/stable/patch-1.2.3.gz
|
|
|
|
If you find what you think is a bug in LyX 1.2.3, you may either
|
|
e-mail the LyX user's mailing list (lyx-users@lists.lyx.org), or open
|
|
a bug report at http://bugzilla.lyx.org
|
|
|
|
If you're having trouble using the new version of LyX, or have a question,
|
|
first check out http://www.lyx.org/help/, and e-mail the LyX user's list if you
|
|
can't find an answer there.
|
|
|
|
Enjoy!
|
|
|
|
The LyX team.
