So I've downloaded 2.23.7 and untarred into
~/Software/lilypond-2.23.7, created a symbolic link from
~/Software/lilypond-2.23.7/bin/lilypond to ~/bin/lilypond, and get the
following...
> ~/bin/lilypond --version

Uncaught exception:

find file ~S in load path" ("ice-9/boot-9") #f)Cannot exit gracefully
when init is in progress; aborting.
Aborted (core dumped)
(with the same result whether the file exists or not).
However...
> ~/Software/lilypond-2.23.7/bin/lilypond x.ly
GNU LilyPond 2.23.7 (running Guile 2.2)
warning: cannot find file: `x.ly'
fatal error: failed files: "x.ly"
So it works if run directly from the installation directory, but not
via a symbolic link.
Any ideas?
Kevin.
Hi Kevin,
I would throw this question on the opensuse-support list., since it's
more OS-related than lilypond specific,I would think.
I don't have the expertise to tell what goes wrong here, but it could be
something with relative paths, which are different in case one starts
from another point in the file system.
I'm on Opensuse Tumbleweed, and there the version of lilypond is kept
reasonably actual.
