I hate to say it, but that comment sounds like "don't bother reporting bugs unless you can fix them". That's not the Open Source way ...
And it looks like the problem is a lot deeper ... Section 7.3.3 Hyphens and Extenders says that hyphens are controlled by 'minimum-distance' and 'minimum-length'. I'm guessing these are reasonably new... The reason I guess that is that I've taken a look at "collated files" and it has a different example ... I thought "collated files" was supposed to be a bunch of regression tests, and IT'S broken! So I guess what I'm saying is "it looks like a new feature has busted a load of regression tests and examples, and no-one has noticed". My personal count is now "two distinct examples, one of them duplicated" and there could quite well be more. So I guess it's up to the lyrics guys to fix it, unless I try and put hyphens into "Penn-syl-va-nia six five thou-sand" (which is actually how it's normally written, I think) which will teach me how to fix the problem. There's also the little matter of the examples are supposed to be "here's how to put a hyphen into lyrics text" and if I fix them, I'll be turning them into examples of "here's how to force a hyphen into lyrics when lily doesn't want to do it".

As I've said on many occasions, I don't do lyrics. You've got the source lilypond code; tell me what to change it to. * ************************************************************************ * This transmission is intended for the named recipient only.
