Package: lyx
Version: 1.6.1-1
Severity: minor

The Lyx save and open dialogs have an address field (QComboBox type of widget I believe), which shows the directory on the file system. This field is called "Look in". The problem is that this address field is no editable, for example, you cannot paste an
address in that field.
The solution to this is to paste the address into the "File name" field, but this is not intuitive. I choose severity only minor
because there exists this workaround.

How to reproduce:
-start lyx and create a document
-press Ctrl+O to open a document (or Ctrl+S to save current document)
-trye to edit the address from "Look in" field, and notice this is not possible.

Probably upstream bug, doesn't seem to be a Qt bug, because Qt Designer has an editable address field.
