Hello David,
You are right, Lilypond was installed but not visible.
I have read scary things about changing
~/.bashrc
like not to be able to login anymore.
So first I justed added the path manually. Of course this will be lost
after a reboot.
Lilypond 2.18.2 was visible and could be executed. After that I
installed Frescobaldi again with
sudo apt-get install frescobaldi
Frescobaldi installed lilypond 2.16.2 again. So i had to reverse.
After manually downloaded and install Frescobaldi again. And executed my
example. The result was still :
Starting lilypond 2.18.2 [test3.ly]...
Processing `/tmp/frescobaldi-CgvCtP/tmpYKvR5j/test3.ly'

}
Unbound variable: generate
fatal error: failed files: "/tmp/frescobaldi-CgvCtP/tmpYKvR5j/test3.ly"
Exited with return code 1.
I must say this problem causes a lot of excalation. apt-get is technical
fine, but very often (years) out of date. Manualy installing is a disaster.
I have two questions :
1) Is there a kind of unittest to test if Lilypond and Frecobadi are
installed correctly?
2) What causes the error now I am using the correct version?
Thanks for your help.

Hi Marc (and others),
Thanks for your reply. I use Ubuntu 14.04
I try to install a newer version but without succes.
I just installed Lilypond a few weeks ago with :
sudo apt-get install lilypond
This results in version 2.16.2
So i unstalled lilypond using :
sudo *apt-get* --purge remove lilypond
sudo *apt-get* clean
Then I downloaded from :
http://download.linuxaudio.org/lilypond/binaries/linux-64/lilypond-2.18.2-1.linux-64.sh
Executed :
sudo chmod +x lilypond-2.18.2-1.linux-64.sh (not in manual, but requered)
sh linux-64/lilypond-2.18.2-1.linux-64.sh
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.
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.
