Lilipond seemed to be installed, but is not.

type in shell :
lilypond

returns the message, lilypond is currently not installed, with the
suggestion using apt-get to install.

There are two possibilities:

1. Install using sudo: sudo sh lilypond-2.18.2-1.linux-64.sh
This will install lilypond to something like /usr/local/lilypond instead of your home directory. This makes lilypond available for all users (just like the install with apt-get).

2. If you don’t install as root LilyPond will be installed to your home directory, so you’ll have to add ~/bin to your PATH as David suggested:


It's likely installed where you told the installer to install it, but is
not in your PATH variable.  Try setting up your PATH appropriately in
your
~/.bashrc
or whatever startup file may be relevant for your system.


2a. If you don’t want to install to ~/bin and ~/lilypond you can use the --prefix option to choose another installation directory instead of ~.
