I think the problem is that the installation scripts from at least 2.18.2 through 2.19.36 were rendered out of date by the change that's proposed in your bug fix: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-lilypond/2016-04/msg00047.html Naturally all the older installation scripts have: mirror="http://lilypond.org/download"; instead of: mirror="http://lilypond.org/downloads"; I hadn't realised there was a mirror in the UK (I assume) until I read this thread. Are there US ones, etc? Cheers, David. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
