you need libforms-dev and xpm4g-dev. Also, if you have previously had
a debianized lyx, you need to use the
--prefix=/usr/local
or it gets confused trying to find things, and it helps while playing
to use
--program-suffux=.pre6
(or whatever) so that you can tell the binaries apart.

that list is long gone. It's now lyx-users@lists.lyx.org and
lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org.

the options-latex has a setting to allow accents on all characters.
Failing that, maybe something in ~/.lyx/lyxrc (i've never used anythign
but english).

I don't know anything about this, but try .pre8 (tommorowish?). I
think I saw something about this, and that it's fixed. I've also
forwarded this to lyx-devel.
