Title:
  [SRU] Update to maintenance release 2.1.5 in Xenial

Status in lyx package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in lyx source package in Xenial:
  New

Bug description:
  http://www.lyx.org/announce/2_1_5.txt

  Public release of LyX version 2.1.5
  ===================================

  We are proud to announce the release of LyX 2.1.5.  This is the fifth,
  and final, maintenance release in the 2.1.x series.

  LyX is a document processor that encourages an approach to writing
  based on the structure of your documents and not simply their
  appearance. It is released under a Free and Open Source Software
  license.

  You can download LyX 2.1.5 from http://www.lyx.org/Download/.

  LyX 2.1.5 is the result of on-going efforts to make our stable version
  even more reliable and stable. We have fixed a number of bugs and made
  a number of improvements. Many of these were minor, but there were a 
  few crashes we fixed, too. We strongly encourage all LyX users who wish
  to continue using 2.1.x to upgrade to this version.

  One of the main features of 2.1.5 is its ability to read and write files 
  in the 2.2.x format. Since the conversion process back and forth usually
  will not leave one with an identical file, however, we do not recommend 
  attempting to collaborate with users of 2.2.x.

  We hope you enjoy using LyX 2.1.5.

  The LyX team.
