Has anybody found a way to get lyx working on a Debian testing system? It
seems there is a bug that prevents one from just apt-getting it. See
http://packages.qa.debian.org/l/lyx.html
and

So is there a way to trick it into installing on a non ia64 machine like mine?
Compile it from source and it'll work fine on debian testing.
This is what I do (qt version):
apt-get install libqt3-mt-dev (for compiling with qt)
get the source and unpack it
./configure --prefix=/usr/local --with-frontend=qt --with-gnu-ld
--with-qt-includes=/usr/include/qt3
And finally, "make" followed by "make install"
