Not broken for ELF, since xforms lib isn't broken anymore
Although xforms should be ok for ELF I got the following error message
at startup of lyx:
/usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libforms.so.0.88" not found
Had to apply a symlink manually:
root{207} /usr/X11R6/lib ln -s libxforms.so.0 libforms.so.0.88
root{208} /usr/X11R6/lib ldconfig -m /usr/X11R6/lib
This is a development release, but I can't get any of the "stable" releases
to build properly and run w/o dump core with xforms 0.86.
(they use an even/odd version numbering scheme like Linux)
Lyx has entered a somewhat code-freeze for an upcoming 0.12. So this version
should be ok (better than "stable" 0.10.7 is on FreeBSD at the moment...)
