you can alter macports to use a local portfile for the update (assuming the build requirements didn't change from 2.24.3 to 2.24.4
first create a local ports directory: mkdir ~/ports/textproc/ cp -R "$(port dir lilypond)" ~/ports/textproc/ the edit the portfile in ~/ports/textproc/lilypond : if {${subport} eq ${name}} { version 2.24.3 -eplace by 2.24.4 and the checksum data: checksums rmd160 c37651f49ac60517056ddc7c281954d1b7e1cd84 \ sha256 df005f76ef7af5a4cd74a10f8e7115278b7fa79f14018937b65c109498ec44be \ size 19441299 to get these values download https://lilypond.org/download/sources/v2.24/lilypond-2.24.4.tar.gz and then: openssl rmd160 ~/Downloads/lilypond-2.24.4.tar.gz openssl sha256 ~/Downloads/lilypond-2.24.4.tar.gz ls -la ~/Downloads/lilypond-2.24.4.tar.gz after updating your portfile you can run portindex ~/ports to register the new lilypond port and after sudo port selfupdate there'll be the update to lilypond 2.24.4 that can be updated with usual macports process Am Mo., 22.
