LyX is a document processor interfaced with LaTeX, which gives both the
ease-of-use of a wordprocessor, and the flexibility and power of
LaTeX.
Quasi-WYSIWYG interface, many LaTeX styles and layouts automatically
generated. Speeds up learning LaTeX and makes complicated layouts
easy and intuitive. New features include spell-checking, international
character support, WYSIWYG graphics, tables, and equations.
Although LyX-1.5 is the most recent version, LyX-1.4.x remains the
default "lyx", because LyX-1.5 requries Qt4.

Upgrade from 1.5.4 to 1.5.7. The newer version(s) want TeXLive, which is
yet to hit the ports tree. However, some people have already started
using LyX-1.6.x on other systems and 1.5.7 is required for upward
compatibility with 1.6. So, here we are -- unfortunately, with teTeX
things like unusual paper-sizes are likely to come out wrong.
As soon as TeXLive is available, I'll upgrade the sibling-port print/lyx
from 1.4.x to 1.6.x directly.
Bump portrevision due to upgrade of devel/gettext.
The affected ports are the ones with gettext as a run-dependency
according to ports/INDEX-7 (5007 of them) and the ones with USE_GETTEXT
in Makefile (29 of them).

Upgrade from 1.5.4 to 1.5.5. Remove post-build test and the patches for
tests -- according to LyX developers, they are not currently using the
self-tests themselves. When this improves, the bitrot we were trying to
patch will be fixed by them...
Expand description to explain, why there remain to LyX-ports. LyX-1.5 can
not become the default "lyx", because it requires Qt4, which is yet to
enter the maintstream on FreeBSD.
