thanks for your reply thomas,
hi,
so let me see ...
the debian package lilypond-data has a pre-depend of texlive though
lilypond no longer has a runtime dependency on tex
this is because as thomas explained :

i dont fully understand why this is a pre-depend and not a build-depend
when a debian is upgraded is it not just removed and reinstalled?
is there a difference between upgrade time and build time?
when are these fonts generated? during runtime or buildtime? is it not
the job of the old lilypond-data to cleanup after itself rather than the
new version doing the clean up?
are the consequences of not cleaning these files up significant compared
with the implications of relying on what should no longer be a dependency.
sorry to ask what maybe completely uninformed questions i just dont
really understand what is going on :)
its just that texlive-base is so huge it means lilypond cant be included
on a debian based live cd -
can anyone think of a way to do what kpsewhich utilising lower level tools ?
or is there a way that maybe this clean up can be rendered unnecessary,
perhaps whatever creates the fonts in the first place should clean up
after itself?
many thanks,
rob
