I'll bet you a double-double and 20 timbits[1] that this is because of "sudo make", or running sudo at some point when downloading the source? Once you do "sudo make clean; sudo make distclean", all the out/ and out-www/ directories should be gone, and you shouldn't have this problem any more if you run plain "make". [1] I miss timbits. :( > There, I found the "Compiling on MacOS X" instructions which told me to > modify configure.make, etc. Hmm, ok. Those instructions look fine. I forgot they were there. I'm slightly supicious that they might be 10.5-specific, since I never touched config.make when I had osx 10.4... but then again, I never tried to build lilypond itself; I only compiled the docs.
