Since the + output differs from the previous (sub-optimal) approach which applied paragraph + separation to sections, lists etc. as well, existing documents + are converted to use preamble code that maintains the previous layout. + The downside is that the workarea looks as if paragraph indendation rather + than paragraph separation was used (output is correct). We encourage you + to try if the new layout suits you, remove the respective preamble code + and re-set the paragraph separation to use the new layout. + * Autotools monolithic build option for building LyX binaries was removed, for compilation speedup use parallel building on multiple cores instead. -- 2.39.5
