Trevor meant the GUB packages, which install the "actual binary" as well as the scheme stuff, fonts, etc. Knowing that a snippet worked on our official 2.11.52 package but fails in 2.11.53 is well within the abilities of users, and as long as they properly uninstall lilypond between changing versions, it should be a useful report.
