LyX is collaboratively maintained in the pkg-lyx Alioth project. It is currently maintained by PerOlofsson and SvenHoexter. LyX is collaboratively maintained on salsa.debian.org.
It's currently maintained with the git-buildpackage toolchain in conjunction with pristine-tar and tarball imports, thus still disconnected
from the upstream git repository.

TODO

  • Remove ttf-lyx transitional package. -> removed in git/master

    • Requires bug filling for remaining reverse dependencies.
    • Reassign all open bugs from ttf-lyx to fonts-lyx.
  • forward spelling patches to upstream and produce more of them - started with http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/10678 - closed, should be better with 2.3.x on-wards

  • Send patches upstream. We should aim at having a minimal packaging, as much as possible should be sent upstream. Only Debian-specific and "packaging-specific" stuff should be kept.
    • prefer-xdg-open - Will be Debian specific until all other issue with xdg-open are solved. Discussion on lyx-devel. sensible-editor has problems too, see #7448.
