OK, it looks as though hijacked a previous thread. Sorry about that.
Although I did install the guile-2.2-dev I still get the same error: /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lguile In config.make is the following line: CONFIG_LIBS = -lglib-2.0 -L/usr/local/lib -lguile I solved my problem by running "locate libguile" and ended up pointing that offending line to "/usr/local/include" instead of "/usr/local.lib". thanks, Al There's a quick path for an underperforming lilypond: sudo apt install guile-2.2-dev. The slow path for good performance is installing guile-1.8 from its git repository, which I never did. Al Rice<alan.f.r...@gmail.com> ezt írta (időpont: 2021. márc. 15., H, 18:36):
Greetings, My name is Al. I am a retied design engineer. 15 years embedded in assembly followed by 20 in the Windows environment programming C and its derivatives. Since retiring I moved all my development machines to linux and started looking at opensource projects to keep my hand in. I am also an aspiring musician and have used Finale, MuseScore and lilypond with Frescobaldi to a great extent. I am attempting to compile lilypond 2.22 on xubuntu 20.04 using "make all". I get the error: /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lguile Should be a simple thing to set a path to the guile 1.8 libraries - but.... I cannot find them, either. Would someone be so kind as to offer some advice on compiling lilypond? Thanks, Al
