Hi Damian,
1. Try running up lilypond with --loglevel=DEBUG, you'll see a lot more
about directories and the values for PATH etc.
2. Guile does *not* like lists being passed to it as GUILE_LOAD_PATH or
as -L prompt from the command line. It is absolutely not parsed like
the bash shell PATH. These get simply added to Guile's %load-path
variable, which is a scheme list.
3. LilyPond in its start-up code prepends its own root directory (let's
call it $LILYPOND_DATADIR) *and* $LILYPOND_DATADIR/scm to guile/scheme's
%load-path variable.
4. Run up the guile REPL from the command-line and type
guile> %load-path
You should see something like:
guile> %load-path
("/usr/local/share/guile/site" "/usr/local/share/guile/1.8"
"/usr/local/share/guile")
guile>
Cheers,
Ian
