so, how does one run lilypond on RH9, without compiling from source? i have tried to install guile-1.6.4-7.1.i386.rpm (from the rawhide rpm dir at ftp.redhat.com) which is linked on the lilypond download page, but the rpm installation routine aborts before finishing.




What does it say?





no error message -- it just aborts without any feedback.



?


then how do you know it aborts?



i was using the GUI rpm installer, and the window would simply dissappear before running to completion, without the final message window which usually tells you either that the package has installed successfully or that some dependencies have not been met, etc.

since my last message, i have finally been successful in getting lilypond 1.8.0-1 running on RedHat 9, as follows:
1. installed guile-1.6.4-7.1.i386.rpm using command-line rpm (no problems there)
2. installed lilypond-1.8.0-1.i386.rpm using command-line rpm (no problems)
3. installed lilypond-documentation-1.8.0-1.i386.rpm using command-line rpm (no problems)
4. when running ly2dvi, got dynamic link error message (can't find libguile-srfi-srfi-13-14-v-1.so)
5. installed guile-devel-1.6.4-7.1.i386.rpm to provide the .so file
6. ly2dvi runs fine


it looks like lilypond is dynamically linked and requires guile-devel, but that dependency is not required by the lilypond rpm. perhaps that needs to be fixed. is this a correct diagnosis, or is something else going on here?

anyway, i am DELIGHTED to finally have it running!

best,
