Package: lyx-qt
Version: 1.3.4-2
Severity: normal

As stated in /usr/share/doc/latex-xft-fonts/README, Qt can't use those
fonts when running in russian locale (and also some other locales)
because of a bug that trolltech refuses to fix.

However, a workaround exists. If LC_TIME locale component is reset to C,
this alters Qt's font selection magic, and enables Qt to load the fonts.

Please make this how lyx-qt provided by package behaves by default if it
is started in russian locale (and probably other affected locales).
This may be done by providing a wrapper script, or by adding several
calls to the code.

This will make lyx-qt usable for russian users to typeset math.

And is thus fixed in 1.3.6-1.  Thanks a lot, Nikita, for looking into
this!
