Bug Description
Binary package hint: lyx
Please backport LyX 1.5.5-1 to Ubuntu Hardy.
This backport will fix Bug 228067. Normally, since LyX 1.5.5 is a bugfix, this would not be eligible for backporting. However, please note that the bug only occurs when hardy-backports is enabled, therefore the fix should appear in hardy-backports as well. There is need to fix a bug when hardy-backports is not enabled as no bug would exist.
The LyX 1.5.5-1 source package is included in Ubuntu Intrepid, but the build fails for all architectures. To get this bug fixed in Ubuntu, the build of LyX in Intrepid should be fixed first (currently it fails to build because of a problem with boost), then LyX 1.5.5-1 can be backported to hardy.
However, a package was successfully created using Prevu. No source changes were necessary.

Yes, please. This is one of my favorite applications and it kills me to be so behind.
