The 'correct' version for system 10.5.8 on a PPC chip should be the
PPC binary. The direct link to the 2.13.9 binary is here:

I have a G4.
It says the correct version to download is 2.12.2.
This is the version I used. See my notes where I said :
Using LilyPond 2.12.2.
I quit all applications and used Console.
Here is the message I get in Console once LilyPond opens to the
"Welcome to LilyPond" screen and has only the single "LilyPond"
menu item in the graphic I sent.
Dec 17 09:00:02 rdlpowerbook LilyPond[203]: +[NSATSGlyphGenerator
initialize] invocation. The class is deprecated.
As I said previously, I now have to 'force-quit' to get out of
LilyPond.
I got the "bad CPU type" message using 2.13.9. That's probably why
the Bouwmans page says to download 2.12.2, which I did.
Interestingly, as I noted, 2.13.9 opens further than 2.12.2, though
neither of them work under my system 10.5.8.
So given that the GUI doesn't work for me on 10.5.8, I've just gone
to using 10.4.11 on my external and that works fine. I'm doing the
above steps to try and help the developers. UNFORTUNATELY I do not
know enough about Unix to be able to run the complex command-line
programs and do LilyPond without the GUI. So I guess for the time
being I'm out of luck on 10.5.8, but since 10.4.11 works I'll stick
with it.
Thanks again.
