OK well something must have changed since I last did a build on WSL because I couldn't even get `make all' on a freshly checked out master to work. And that was *definitely* working before.It fails now with this error: Making Documentation/out/en/changes.texi < tely lilypond-book.py: error: file not found: version.itexi I'm running Ubuntu 20.04 on WSL 2. My normal Linux system doesn't have the same problem. Kevin
Thanks for taking the time. I cannot recall what error I had now - the machine that WSL is on is a work machine so I tend to keep it clear of personal stuff but I was curious and had some time on my hands - but I do remember being able to build LilyPond just not the doc.
I'll check again next week, maybe try an earlier version of Ubuntu if such a thing exists on MS marketplace these days.

I will try to make time to verify and get back to you.

Every now and again I go back and reclone the entire git dir and go through the setting up of software dependencies etc. but I've never managed ever to get a full doc build to complete. I haven't done any useful debugging as I have a linux box that works fine so it's not a huge deal but I was wondering if anyone on this list had ever tried on WSL and got it to work. -- -- regards James>
