I executed this: "lilypond -dbackend=eps myfile.ly" on LilyPond 2.22.2
on Ubuntu 22.04 and got these files:

myfile-1.eps
myfile-1.pdf
myfile.ly
myfile.pdf
myfile-systems.count
myfile-systems.tex
myfile-systems.texi

But when I execute "lilypond --eps myfile.ly", I just get one eps file.

Where did you see "lilypond -dbackend=eps myfile.ly"?
