several regressions with respect to Qt 4.x. See #9215 for a list of bugs
related to compiling LyX with different versions of Qt.
+* If compiling LyX on Windows with Qt 5.6, it is recommended to use MSVC 2015
+ update 2 to avoid #9892.
+
* LyX now gives an error if the underlying LaTeX command exited with error.
!!Known issues in version 2.2.0
-* LyX needs to be run under Python 2 and will not work properly on systems
- where Python 3 is the default binary. See #7030 to know how to fix this
- properly, since simple shebang conversion in *.py files will not be enough.
+* LyX needs Python 2.7 at runtime. The python 2 interpreter needs to be named
+ either 'python' or 'python2'.
+ Building LyX usually works with Python 3 as well, but there might be cases
+ where it does not work properly on systems where Python 3 is the default
+ binary. See #7030 to know how to fix this properly, since simple shebang
+ conversion in *.py files will not be enough.
* If using LyX with Qt 4, it is possible to suddenly get keyboard keys wrong,
and deadlock. To work around the issue, you can disable IBus for LyX by
