[office: text processing] lyx-qt

I've uploaded into ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/incoming lyx with qt support:

# Contributor: blue_ant <blue_ant@hotpop.com>
pkgname=lyx-qt
pkgver=1.3.4
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="An advanced open-source document processor running on many Unix platforms."
url="http://www.lyx.org"
license=""
depends=('qt')
makedepends=()
provides=(lyx)
conflicts=(lyx)
replaces=(lyx)
backup=()
install=
source=(ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/stable/lyx-$pkgver.tar.gz)
md5sums=('49819dcdd8b1a8e311f125ed65899528')

build() {
  cd $startdir/src/lyx-$pkgver
  ./configure --with-frontend=qt --with-qt-dir=/opt/qt --prefix=/usr
  make || return 1
  make prefix=$startdir/pkg/usr install
}

I don't feel comfortable with the default xform version of lyx thus I made this pakage, hoping someone else (except me) will find this PKGBUILD useful.

I fixed the PKGBUILD and uploaded to STAGING.

Thank you contrasutra!

I've only a question about the fixes, (so that I can make a better PKGBUILD next time): replaces=(lyx) was wrong becasue they are the same program, and perl was needed for reLyx, I know I simply forgot to put it in the dependencies :oops:, the only dependency that I don't understand is python...

How did you understand that python is needed?

Just wanted to say thanks for this - I like Lyx, but didn't enjoy the feel of the previous version from Arch - this looks a lot nicer. Cheers.
