You need to install the readline library. On my system, it is provided by the guile-1.8-libs package. Note that more often than not, any GUILE provided by the system is GUILE 2.0, and its libraries are not useful for GUILE 1.8 which LilyPond uses. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond
