Hi Ralph,
I'm running LilyPond 2.19.81 with Frescobaldi 3.0.0 under Ubuntu 18.04.2.
Has any progress been made in making a process available to install
LilyPond 2.20 or 2.21 on Ubuntu 18.04? Back in March of this year
(2019), there was a brief discussion about installing Guile 1.8 on
Ubuntu 18.04, so that ly 2.20 could run. I tried to follow the
suggestions, but was unsuccessful. If someone would be willing to work
with me, perhaps off-list, and we were successful, maybe we could post
a working process to enable others to install and use ly 2.20.
As David K pointed out, a "LilyPond 2.20" or "2.21" does not exist yet.
But you can compile, e.g. current Master and work with this.
I posted instructions (that surely could be improved upon) to do this on
Mint 19.1 in December; I'd guess it's probable that they are also valid
for Ubuntu 18.04:

In the discussion started by this message, some useful scripts were
mentioned (which I did not need to try out).
Best
Lukas
