lilypond-book: where are my noteheads?
i just upgraded to version 2.8.1 from 2.4.5 , which is the last version on fedora core 1 (planet ccrma packages). i removed the ccrma 2.4.5 package, then installed the new one using the installer from the lilypond download page. i noticed that the 2.4.5 rpm installed to /usr/share while the installer put 2.8.1 in /usr/local, but i don't know if that's relevant to my problem. lilypond itself seems to be working fine, but now when i use lilypond-book to make latex files, the noteheads (and clef symbols, time signatures) disappear from the latex output. i realize it's probably latex that's broken, not lilypond, but i don't know enough about fonts to figure out where to fix it. any help would be greatly appreciated, bernie ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Upgrading from 2.6 to 2.8
Title: Upgrading from 2.6 to 2.8 Hello, all. I post this with the hopes that it will prove helpful to someone. I run on a Gentoo Linux system (thanks to whoever picked up the maintenance for the lilypond ebuild! When will I see 2.8.1, btw?) and ran into a simple issue that took a while to work out. Back in the 2.6/2.7 days, I had used the package installer for lilypond (the Gentoo ebuild only handled 2.7 and I wasn't ready for that). When it was time to move to 2.8, I did "package remove lilypond" which worked fine. I then tried both emerging of 2.8.0 and using the install script for 2.8.1. Both worked fine until I tried a simple "lilypond myfile.ly". This produced an error when converting from ps to pdf. The command being used was "gs-nox" and it was producing a strange error about init.ps or something like that having a version mismatch. To make a long story short, I needed to do "package remove ghostscript" (I already had an appropriate version emerged using Gentoo's stuff) before my problem cleared up. Installing lilypond 2.6 with the package installer also installed a version of ghostscript (which turned out not to be compatable with 2.8) along with it and removing lilypond dit not remove ghostscript. I need to check if guile also has the same issue... So, if you are on Linux and move from 2.6 to 2.8, make sure your ghostscript (and probably guile) installation is up-to-date.

Re: stereo pan
if you used tags or \book to create two separate midi files, could you either tell timidity to play one with the left channel and the other with the right? or would you have to take a further step and combine them into a third, stereo midi file?

Re: Upgrading from 2.6 to 2.8
Here's how to get Lilypond 2.8.1 installed from source in Gentoo... it
isn't hard. This includes installing a patched version of Ghostscript
8.53 (which under Gentoo supports the hl1250 printer driver in addition
to the standard drivers).
1. make sure PORTDIR_OVERLAY is declared in /etc/make.conf (point it to
/usr/local/portage)
2. echo "media-sound/lilypond ~x86" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords
3. echo "app-text/ghostscript-afpl ~x86" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords
4. mkdir -p /usr/local/portage/media-sound/lilypond; cd
/usr/local/portage/media-sound/lilypond
5. cp /usr/portage/media-sound/lilypond/lilypond-2.8.0-r1.ebuild
./lilypond-2.8.1.ebuild
6. ebuild lilypond-2.8.1.ebuild digest
7. mkdir -p /usr/local/portage/app-text/ghostscript-afpl/files
8. cp /usr/portage/app-text/ghostscript-afpl/files/*.{patch,mak,diff}
/usr/local/portage/app-text/ghostscript-afpl/files
9. copy ghostscript-8.53-global-glyph-names.patch (attached to this
email) to /usr/local/portage/app-text/ghostscript-afpl/files
(this patch prevents ghostscript from creating PDF's that are about
ten times too large)
10. cd /usr/local/portage/app-text/ghostscript-afpl
11. copy ghostscript-afpl-8.53-r5.ebuild (attached to this email) to
/usr/local/portage/app-text/ghostscript-afpl
12. ebuild ghostscript-afpl-8.53-r5.ebuild digest
13. if you have ghostscript-esp or ghostscript-gnu installed, uninstall
them (e.g. emerge -C ghostscript-esp)*
13. emerge --oneshot --ask --verbose =app-text/ghostscript-afpl-8.53-r5
14. emerge --ask --verbose =media-sound/lilypond-2.8.1
If you want to use the 2.9 branch, do the same as above, but using a
different-version filename for the lilypond ebuild. Also, in your
Portage overlay, you'll want to copy the guile-1.6.7 ebuild from
/usr/portage/dev-util/guile to guile-1.8.0 in your $PORTDIR_OVERLAY,
comment out all the patches in the ebuild, do ebuild guile-1.8.0.ebuild
digest, and then emerge guile. There is currently a Gentoo bugzilla
request for an official guile-1.8.0 ebuild.
The advantage of this system is that you know exactly what software is
being invoked, since there is only one copy of python, guile,
ghostscript, etc. on your system. This makes troubleshooting easier.
The disadvantage is that you are re-doing what the developers already
spent plenty of time doing.
--Daniel
P.S. Pango 1.12.x is currently hard-masked in Portage. If you are not
running a Gnome system and are willing to do a bit of dirty work, you
can unmask it and install it (and a host of supporting libraries). It
will give you the benefit of being able to take advantage of OpenType
support for ligatures.
* If you think you may need to revert your ghostscript install, you may
want to create a binary package before unmerging. If you have
gentoolkit installed, you can do the following:
quickpkg ghostscript-esp
Then if you need to re-emerge that same verion, you can do
emerge --usepkg ghostscript-esp
and you can thereby skip the compile step.

problem with \partial repeated in second ending
Hello from the file below notice that for some reason a
partial 8 is used to begin the second ending I can't see
any reason why this should happen.
I looked at section 8.4.2 to see if I needed to correct
it using some kind of timing but that didn't make any sense.
So what's going on here?
Thanks
