Hi, I'm a non-Unix-user trying to instal Lilypond under MacOS X.
Got along pretty well - got fink going, found how to change the setting
about trees, told it to install lilypond-unstable and it did lots of
stuff. But it gave up in the end because it can't find 'ar'.
checking for ar... missing_a
It looks as if you are trying to compile it yourself. Fink should
contain prebuilt packages of LilyPond. I'm not a Mac user myself,
and don't know anything about Fink, but 'ar' should belong to
the same category of packages as the compilers, linkers, debuggers
and so on.
