If you have trouble doing this with macports please report the issues here, I would be glad to try to help. Macports can be fussy and there are way to make it behave if you have had to spend some time with it like I have. The dependencies were a mystery to me for a long time and since I really wanted lilypond I forced myself to research the topic and understand what was going on. It has even helped with other macports because I'm no longer intimidated when an install fails due to dependency issues.
Lilypond is also making me learn Scheme so the project is actually benefitting me more than just in music. -Eric On Wed, Aug 27, 2008 at 2:40 AM, James E.
