The only difference is that after installing LilyPond, users will
have to
export TEXINPUTS=$TEXINPUTS:/usr/local/share/lilypond
export MFINPUTS=$MFINPUTS:/usr/local/share/lilypond
instead of doing
texhash
no?
Don't we already have a /etc/profile.d entry that could automagically
set this (at least for some of the more ignorant crowd of redhat users ;-)?
