LyX. It is imperative that you have the correct versions of these
libraries, and their associated header files.
-As of LyX version 1.1.1, you will need to have Xforms library and header
-version 0.81, 0.86, or 0.88. Version 0.88 is a stable release and the
+As of LyX version 1.1.5, you will need to have Xforms library and header
+version 0.88 or 0.89. Version 0.88 is a stable release and the
recommended version. On some systems, such as linux ELF, there are shared
library versions of the Xforms library, which require an installation step
to configure the system.

You will also need a recent C++ compiler, where recent means that the
-compilers knows a bit about the C++ standard. Compilers that are known
-to compile LyX are gcc 2.8.1 and 2.95.x, the various versions of egcs
-and Digital C++ version 6.1. Please tell us your experience with other
-compilers. It is probably _not_ possible to compile LyX with gcc
-2.7.x, but this may change in the future.
