BUG: lyx-1.4.0pre3 fails to download + compile issue on intel

Description

First the source file for the current LyX port is no longer present on the original server (lyx-1.4.0pre3.tar.gz). Replacing it with the 1.4.3 release initially fails on intel machines since the port requires gcc-3.3, which will not compile for intel. Removing this requirement, by modifying the Portfile further, allows for a succesful install. Finally I have modified the Portfile to make LyX install into /Applications/MacPorts/ instead of the old /Applications/DarwinPorts/ directory. I have been using the compiled version and it seems to run ok, however it does exhibits crashes upon exiting.

Modified Portfile included. No changes were made to the patch.

LyX is now at version 1.5.3. Here's a diff which might work, except I can't even get the dependency qt3-mac to compile right now so I don't know.

Summary: BUG: LyX fails to download + compile issue on intelBUG: lyx-1.4.0pre3 fails to download + compile issue on intel

Via a private email to me in follow-up to #14502 I learned that the lyx ftp server is having problems right now and that we should use their mirrors instead. Also the software is at version 1.5.4 now. I still can't try to build it because I still can't build the dependency qt3-mac, but here's an updated (and untested) patch. If anyone can built qt3-mac and verify that this patch works, please add a note here and I'll commit it. Or, if this patch doesn't work, please let me know what error you get.

Resolution: fixed
Status: newclosed

The main problem was that LyX now requires Qt 4. I've committed a working 1.5.4 update based on Ryan's patch in r35662.
