If you're using lilybuntu, then there shouldn't be any problems building the docs -- what did you try, and what error(s) did you see? If you're not using lilybuntu, then building the docs is a relatively difficult process on Linux and OSX, requiring familiarity with package managers (on osx: fink and/or macports, quite possibly both). It's certainly beyond the capabilities of our average contributor with less than 6 months of experience. (before any linux people complain that building the docs is easy -- my "our average contributor with less than 6 months of experience" estimate is derived from evidence from our mailing lists, based on the types of operating systems our new contributors use, their technical abilities, and the amount of time it takes until they stop using lilybuntu) Cheers, - Graham _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
