Dear Federico,
Thomas Morley forwarded you an email from
http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/A-suggestion-add-rf-to-built-in-dynamics-td226659.html
One issue in it was that my Linux distro (antiX) does not have
systemd, and it appears from the documentation that LilyDev needs it.
I am a Linux newbie, and don't fully understand the container system.
Apparently you are the expert on this.
Only the container (Lilydev-1-debian.tar.xz file) needs systemd.
The virtual machine (LilyDev-1-debian-vm.zip file) can be installed in
VirtualBox or GNOME Boxes (or any libvirt frontend).
Another option, if you want to keep your lilypond dev environment
separated from your system, is Debootstrap:
https://wiki.debian.org/Debootstrap
but then you must set up the system following the CG:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/contributor/requirements-for-compiling-lilypond#ubuntu
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/contributor/requirements-for-building-documentation
and build guile-1.8 using these commands:
https://github.com/fedelibre/LilyDev/blob/master/mkosi/debian/mkosi.postinst#L42
(copy lines 23-35 of that file to ~/.bashrc before compiling guile-1.8)
Is there any chance you could find time to let me know whether the
container version of LilyDev will run under any of the
easily-available container managers (Docker, LXC...)? If it wn't, I
suppose that I will have to try to find a Linux version that will
run on my rather ancient laptop.
Yes, if you can install Docker, you can use the Dockerfile contributed
by Dan Eble:
https://github.com/fedelibre/LilyDev/tree/master/docker
It would be very useful to upload that Docker image to Docker Hub but I
haven't found the time to do it yet (especially because I'm using
Fedora, which switched to Podman as alternative to Docker.. and Podman
doesn't have yet the Docker-compose feature..).
