Please package LyX 1.4.1

Dear package maintainer of LyX,

The LyX version in Arch is still 1.3.6, but as of today, already version 1.4.1 has been released. LyX package has been flagged out of date for some time on the website.

Thanks in advance,
Jan

Dear package maintainer of LyX,

Please, upgrade the package to the last version (1.4.2).

I would thank you so much.

Posts like this are unnecessary - all you have to do is flag the package out-of-date at www.archlinux.org (lyx has already been flagged). The devs will get to it when they get to it.

If you're in a hurry, get the PKGBUILD from CVS, change the version number and md5sum, and build it yourself. If you don't know how to do that, check the wiki.
