Michael, looks like you have multiple package managers in play. For plain MacPorts Lilypond would've been in the /opt/local folder structure. Yours appear to reside in folders of the Ruby Version Manager. I didn't know it, but looking at their site version and MacPorts configuration are a bit blurry to me. They have https://rvm.io/integration/macports-before-autolibs and https://rvm.io/integration/macports. In the past I've had issues mixing multiple package managers on Mac OS, so in the end I've decided to only use MacPorts. With a plain MacPorts I've never encountered an issue with the Lilypond port. kind regards, Hans
