I was able to build Lilypond on Catalina, using the newest Xcode. MacPorts does not yet have a distribution for Catalina, so I built it from source as well. It seems to work fine. I did have to make one change to the Portfile for lilypond-devel. I added macports-gcc-9 at the top of the compiler.fallback-append list, because MacPorts was mistakenly trying and failing to build gcc8 as a dependency. I know there is a political controversy about the GNU License and the latest Xcode, but there don't seem to be any technical challenges to building from source on the current Mac OS and Xcode.
I'm using a 64-bit-compiled Lilypond 2.19.83 on Catalina now. _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
