Do we have a warning somewhere in the LilyPond documentation that people must not use the binary directly but the wrapper? Simon, have you tried to find something in the docs? If yes, what keywords were you looking for?
I have no idea from where I might have learned to use INSTALLDIR/bin/lilypond. It’s several years ago that I first did that; when I directed Frescobaldi to the newly installed versions a few days ago, I just wasn’t very attentive and sort of stumbled into the wrong directory (which never happened to me before…).
Now I just checked the docs for any pointers and it’s kind of a blank spot. The instructions in <http://lilypond.org/website/unix.html> aren’t as detailed, and the Usage guide doesn’t say anything at all about installing.
Best, Simon
