Uploaded here are four debs compiled on Ubuntu Hoary. 
On my version of hoary they required the additional installation
of libtiff-tools and groff packages.
This version was compiled with the backports versions of
several packages on my system. In particular libgcc1 is updated
by backports and required by these packages. To update to this
libgcc1 do the following:
edit (as sudo) /etc/apt/sources.list
and add the following three lines:
## Backports
deb http://ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net/ hoary-backports main universe multiverse restricted
deb http://ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net/ hoary-extras main universe multiverse restricted

after saving issue the following command:
sudo apt-get upgrade libgcc1
Hope they are of use and report problems to kleeman@cims.nyu.edu
The debs were built using the lyx-1.3.6 source tar ball of July 16
and the lyx_1.3.6-0.lyx.org.3.diff patch file listed on the lyx  site

NOTE: Install only 3 packages from the four i.e. choose between lyx-qt and lyx-xforms
