The info installation as part of "make all install" is without images. That's suitable for text terminal info clients, but when using Emacs under X as an info client, the doc is so much inferior without the images that it isn't funny. "make info install-info" (typically split between two make runs and using sudo just with the install-info target) is supposed to create and install the info files including images. But it has stopped doing that apparently. -- David Kastrup ___ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond

I never knew about the install-info make target. Right now, if I run `make install', when it completes it will print a message with the install-info command I need to run. Something like this: install-info --info-dir=~/.local/share/info ~/.local/share/info/lilypond-web.info Running that always fails because the lilypond-web.info file doesn't exist.

Info file generation or installation is broken
Apparently, images are no longer copied when doing make install-info making the documentation near useless. Pages look like File: lilypond-notation.info, Node: Pitches, Next: Rhythms, Up: Musical notation 1.1 Pitches === [image src="lilypond/67/lily-393eafe4.png" alt="[image of music]"] This section discusses how to specify the pitch of notes. There are three steps to this process: input, modification, and output. * Menu: * Writing pitches:: * Changing multiple pitches:: * Displaying pitches:: * Note heads:: now. I find that make install-info creates a link lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 35 Mär 31 01:28 lilypond -> ../doc/lilypond/html/Documentation/ in /usr/local/share/info that is entirely useless since I am not interested in installing the HTML documentation. -- David Kastrup ___ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond
