Re: Building 2.5.20

[Daniel Johnson]

I get an entirely different error, one that was discussed on this list
in February if I am reading things correctly.

cd ./out-www; texi2dvi --batch  lilypond.texi
This is e-TeX, Version 3.141592-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.4)
---! /usr/share/texmf-var/web2c/etex.fmt was written by pdfetex
(Fatal format file error; I'm stymied)
/usr/bin/texi2dvi: texinfo.tex appears to be broken, quitting.
make[3]: *** [out-www/lilypond.dvi] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory
`/usr/local/src/lilypond-2.5.20/Documentation/user'
make[2]: *** [WWW] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/lilypond-2.5.20/Documentation'
make[1]: *** [WWW] Error 2

make: *** [web] Error 2

FYI, this is on a fresh Linux-from-Scratch system on which I just
installed teTeX 3.0 and Ghostscript 8.50.  Personally, the last time I
was able to build the docs was for 2.5.8.  I'll second the request for a
documentation tarball.

Jonatan, instead of make all, try make default install, then if you're
feeling adventurous you can try make web web-install.
