The last version of Lilypond I installed was 2.23.5. For that I have a shell script entitled lilypond-2.23.5-1.linux-64.sh , and similar scripts for previous development and stable versions.
Having updated my OS to Ubuntu 22.04 I want to install the latest version. But now when I click on the link I get the tar.bz2 file direct, and not a shell script which would download and process it for me. I assume I have to use 'make' etc. to compile things, but I am not very familiar with such matters. I notice that the link for the stable version 2.22.2 still downloads a shell script. Is this a change of policy to discourage us less geeky users from using the development version, or am I just missing something? I admit I haven't used Lilypond at all for some months. David
