Hello. I downloaded Lilypond 2.24.4 and Frescobaldi 3.3.0 onto My Mac
Monterey OS system and had frustrating results. I plan to get a
laptop with a Linux OS and wondered if someone could advise a LInux
distro that has these packages or something similar.
Any flavour of Ubuntu or Debian will do it. I run Xubuntu, and then
just type
sudo apt install frescobaldi
That will fetch and install everything you need.
I am told that the Mac installer will also do everything automatically,
but I do not run Macs so I have not tried it. You should not need to do
a manual download.
