Sorry, this hasn't helped me. True, if I type 'guile' it runs /usr/bin/guile-2.0, but if I type /usr/bin/guile-1.8 readline also works. Presumably when I type 'lilypond scheme-sandbox' it runs the guile at /usr/local/lilypond/usr/bin/guile, rather than the one in /usr/bin/. As Lilypond seems to have readline files in /usr/local/lilypond/usr/lib/ and /usr/local/lilypond/usr/share/guile/1.8/ice-9/ I would have expected readline to work. Why are the files there if they can't be used? I'm guessing now - do these perhaps belong to an earlier version of Lilypond, and have not been removed when I do 'uninstall-lilypond'? And has readline now been removed from the guile that comes with Lilypond? And if so, why? And if not, I'm back to my original question: why isn't readline loading?
