Hi, Having seen that many here are using 2.19, I thought I'd have a go. I use both Mac/OS and Linux, but what I'm describing here is for Mac/OS. I install lilypond via macports which provides two packages:
So, I deactivated lilypond and activated lilypond-devel in order
to use 2.19. My first test did not work:
There are no error messages referring to my own lilypond source files, which makes me wonder what's going on here. I understand that the lilypond-devel package is not intended to
be stable, and so bugs may appear. Is that what's happening here?
If not, I'm happy to try to create a small example that exposes
this error. Would I be better advised to stick to the lilypond package and
2.18? Or is there another route to installing a stable 2.19
without too much work (I keep running into comments about how
difficult it is build lilypond from source). When I tried lilypond 2.19 on a different score, I had the above error, but also some relating to my own .ly files. I guess there are changes that I need to make to my source (even though I have `\version "2.18.2"` in the source). Is that right? Is there a guide to these changes?
I think this is my first post here, which seems like an appropriate time to say that lilypond is a phenomenal piece of software - thanks to all involved. Matt |
