Description

Hi,
this is a forward from the Debian BTS
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=452889

The problem is reproduceable, I tried it with an upgrade from 1.4.5.1 to 1.5.2.

Original report:
"""
After upgrading to the 1.5 series, lyx shows an empty recent file list.

It would be nice to preserve it.

If fixing this is non-trivial, it's fine with me if you close this or
mark it will not fix.

Resolution: wontfix
Status: newclosed

We have switched to a different mean of storing this list and did
not try to write code for the transition.

I am afraid this is not something that will change now. Clearly a matter of
manpower.

I close the bug, but feel free to reopen it if you disagree.

No problem I think that's ok. The reporter expected this decision aswell.
IMHO that should have been listed in the release notes. Maybe this should be
noted in the Wiki for the 1.5.0 release or something like this? Or maybe I'm
just blind and the problem is documented somewhere?

I have added some text to UPGRADING explaining the situation.
