Not such a silly question... (I don't know why this never has dawned on me, I have always installed tarballs as root...) I did get something different when I ran: rpm -Uvh lilypond-1.4.2-imdk.rpm Now it is telling me that the 'libintl.so.1', so now it is just a matter of finding what this library is, even running as root: urpmf libintl.so.1 still returns nothing... Thanks to everyone, I still want to do this, and I do appreciate your patience, Mike _______________________________________________ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
