Tell us what it is.
That's more or less cut&paste from the instructions for a minimal example. There is no guarantee that the code removed along with the segfault is responsible for the segfault. But there is a good chance that you have arrived at a version where the segfault is easier to diagnose, because we'll be searching for the needle in a quite smaller haystack. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
