I suppose that fact that it produces output means it's installed properly. Lilypond-book seems to work better than it did before, so that's a good thing. I still have access to emacs-mode. Would the relevant files have been replaced? I haven't tested the documentation because that's provided in a separate package. I'm happy accessing the web version of it for now. Another poster suggested I run 'lintian' over my newly created deb. Apart from a few trivial errors (licensing details, maintainer addresses and so on), a few things come up which somebody with a clue might be able to help me with. For starters, there are a lot of complaints about permissions being wrong. For example: W: lilypond: non-standard-dir-perm usr/ 0700 != 0755 W: lilypond: non-standard-dir-perm usr/share/ 0700 != 0755 W: lilypond: non-standard-dir-perm usr/share/doc/ 0700 != 0755 I'll assume for now that these can be ignored, although I'd appreciate some explanation of what these mean. I've looked at a few of the files, and they don't seem to have the permissions Lintian's worried about. (Is there a mask applied?) W: lilypond: script-not-executable /usr/share/lilypond/2.7.13/make/ly.make Do I have to worry about this? The dependencies don't seem to be recorded in the file, but lintian picks them up anyway. For example: E: lilypond: python-script-but-no-python-dep ./usr/bin/abc2ly E: lilypond: python-script-but-no-python-dep ./usr/bin/convert-ly E: lilypond: python-script-but-no-python-dep ./usr/bin/etf2ly I've got no idea what this is: E: lilypond: unstripped-binary-or-object ./usr/share/lilypond/2.7.13/python/midi.so My completely untrained eye tells me that there is nothing here that should stop it from working, but I wouldn't expect Debian to uploading it any day either! Does anyone with any idea about these things have anything to add? Thanks for your time!

linebreak problem, sheet with chords, notes and lyrics
Hi, the manual shows me sth. like this: \repeat unfold 4 { s2. \noBreak s2. \noBreak s2. \noBreak s2. \noBreak s2. \noBreak s2. \break } This is ok, but I do not want to use polyphony (beams, rest postition...), so how can I combine the skips with other notes? I have the following lilypond file: \version "2.7.9" \paper {linewidth = 180 \mm} \header { title = "test" poet = "test" } linebreak = \repeat unfold 4 { s2. \noBreak s2. \noBreak s2. \noBreak s2. \noBreak s2. \noBreak s2. \break } melody = \relative c' { \clef treble \key f \major \time 3/4 \linebreak c2. d e f g a b c } text = \lyricmode { Aaa2. Bee Cee Dee e } harmonies = \chordmode { f2. c/e d:m c4 g:7m/d c bes2.:maj } \score { << \context ChordNames { \harmonies } \context Voice = one { \autoBeamOff \melody } \lyricsto "one" \new Lyrics \text >> \layout { } } - Here I have a a big gap in the score. If I use \linebreak in the \score part, I get an additional staff. So how could I solve the problem?

problem with position of bar rest
Hi, I have an interesting problem here. In the first bar of "example.pdf", the bar rest of the upper voice is too close to the notes on the lower voice. How do I move the rest vertically upwards? I can't use pitched rests as the bar rest would move to the left side of the bar. Thank you. Yours sincerely, Seng \version "2.6.3" \relative { \key c \major \time 4/4 << { R1 } \\ { e'2 d } >> R1^\fermataMarkup } example.pdf Description: Adobe PDF document ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
First Measure bar
Title: First Measure bar All, If I have a file with this: { \time 4/4 \repeat volta 2 { c''2 c'' } } I get a single measure and a close repeat at the end of it. How do I get LilyPond to put the openning repeat in there as well? I tried this: { \time 4/4 \bar "|:" \repeat volta 2 { c''2 c'' } } but that puts the time signature inside the repeat. I tried moving the \bar to various places but nothing would put it where I want it. I would like to have the symbols in this order: 1. Clef 2. Time signature 3. Open repeat 4. The rest of the music. Thanks for any help you can provide. Stephen ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Line breaks are calculated after the repeats have been expanded, so this isn't possible unless you do manual line breaks after the repeat (it could be possible to invent a \percentBreak, which forces percent repeats to be unfolded once after the break). Insertion of such breaks _could_ be automated with hacks similar to LaTeX's .aux files, but that solution is probably too dirty/inelegant to be implemented in lilypond. -- Erik ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: First Measure bar
I have the same problem. I don't know if lilypond can do that, but I use the following cheap trick: { \time 4/4 \partial 128 s128 % create an empty tiny partial measure before the repeat \repeat volta 2 { c''2 c'' } } which works form me. I'd recommend you to use raggedright=##t in the layout for a single bar score though.

Unusual Repeat Alternatives
I'm writing out some music at the moment which has an odd repeat structure in it. There are two distinct alternatives, a very long one and a short one. The long one is called after repeats 1 and 3, and the short one after repeat 2. So the music should look roughly like this: _ ___ | 1--3. :| | 2. The default method in lilypond for repeated alternatives labels the above as 1--2 and 3, assuming that the first alternative is played twice. I guess this is reasonable, but is there a way to override it to state the repeats in the correct way in this case? Thanks for your help, Jennifer -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
