One question, regarding the Wiki page as well as the process in general: Running Frescobaldi from Git needs a number of other dependencies to be met. Am I right to assume that the suggested approach will work when Frescobaldi has previously been installed a different way? If so this should be clearly stated on the Wiki page. There are two more things that should be added, but I can do that when I'll find time: - How to update through Git - Use the "Git" menu to checkout different branches Urs _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
