- * install mingw/zlib:
- Download zlib binaries and developer files (zlib-1.2.3-bin.zip and
- zlib-1.2.3-lib.zip) from http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/zlib.htm .
+ * install gettext (optional):
+ Download gettext from http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/gettext.htm
+ The complete package (without source) is recommended.
+
+ You may also try the windows binary (gettext-runtime-x.x.x.bin.woe32.zip
+ and gettext-tools-x.x.x.bin.woe32.zip) from one of the GNU mirrors
+ (e.g. http://mirrors.usc.edu/pub/gnu/gettext/).
+
+ * install aspell (optional):
+ LyX uses aspell 0.60.4 and there is no, as of now, official windows
+ version. If you do not want to compile aspell from source by yourself,
+ your best bet is using Abdel's lyx 1.5.0svn experimental package located
+ at http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/LyX150Experimental. The link to his
+ pre-built aspell package is http://younes.a.free.fr/Lyx-15-experimental
