I made a standalone version using 'port mdmg lilypond-devel' which results in a lilypond-devel-2.19.82_4.dmg, on MacOS 10.13.6, and it is working after installing: I moved my /opt/ out of way, and it gets installed in a new directory /opt/. It is rather large though 1.86 GB compared to the LilyPond app, which is less than 100 MB. The first time I ran the command above, I got an error (below), but running it again created the distribution. -- ---> Creating pkg for libzzip version 0_0.13.69_0 at /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_textproc_lilypond-devel/lilypond-devel/work/mpkg_packages/libzzip-0.13.69.pkg Error: Failed to mpkg lilypond-devel: invalid command name "" Error: See /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_textproc_lilypond-devel/lilypond-devel/main.log for details.
