Here you are:

$ bash lilypond-2.6.0.x86.package
/dev/shm/autopackage.44856229/meta/@lilypond.org/lilypond:2.6.0/apkg-installer: 
line 1116: /usr/libexec/autopackage/autosu-gtk: No such file or directory

Debian testing/unstable on AMD64.

So, you didn't drop support for the Debian package management system?

I would tend to think that these "autopackage"s should be a last resort, in case
no distribution-specific package is available which a priori should deal better
with the distribution idiosyncrasies and policies than a tool that bypasses, 
mimics
or just ignores it. Afterall, the main purpose (from the user's viewpoint) of a 
distribution is to install software.


Best,
