I just noticed that convert-ly does not work from the lilypond.app
menu item in osx 10.4. I have python installed. convert-ly works from
the terminal, but here are the problems with the menu item.
• If I update the convert-ly file to be: env python, lilypond does
not find python. That's not unreasonable, the GUI versions of most
command-line applications don't load the path properly. (It's a known
issue with programs like Emacs.app or Aquamacs.app)
• If I update the convert-ly file to be the exact path to my python
installation (in this case /Users/jamesebailey/bin/python), lilypond
finds python, but reports the error:
'import site' failed; use -v for traceback
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Users/jamesebailey/Applications/LilyPond.app/Contents/
Resources/bin/convert-ly", line 14, in <module>
import os
ImportError: No module named os
With either modification, running convert-ly from the terminal works
without problem. Can this be resolved, or should convert-ly simply be
removed from the menu in 10.4?
