The lilypond package installs a gs version with X support turned off, so it will definitely not work with gv. This is however no problem, since the package's gs binary has been renamed to gs-nox. So: There should be no problem, if we just can make the package understand that it should install gs. (at least this is how it worked in the last package I could install, around 2.5.30) Erik _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
