Firstly, it's great to be able to say that I've just gotten Lilypond 2.6.0 compiled without any apparent major problems (unless the install problem mentioned below is indicative of one) on a maching running the Sarge distribution of Debian! :-) Only a few packages had to be obtained from the testing distribution, along with installing the latest versions of ghostscript and freetype from sources. Thanks for all the work that everyone's put into this!
The only problem was when I did a 'make install'. Everything appeared to be going well until: Compiling cheatsheet.texi... cheatsheet.texi is up to date.
