I'm using ghostscript 8.62 and building correctly. GUB was recently updated to use 8.65. All three compile fine (either original version or the ones from out/lybook-db) with 2.13.1. So I'm very upset... I'm going to build a rpm for ghostscript 8.64 and try a fresh build of Lily late this afternoon, since I've concrete is waiting for me (my new estate is not perfectly finished and better rising the wall before the slope goes to the neighbor).

Download here: http://prodet.hu/bert/lilydev/lilybuntu.iso It's 716 MB, so it won't fit on a CD. If you're using a virtual machine you don't have to worry about that anyway. I just installed and compiled Lilypond successfully inside a VM on my iMac at work (using Sun VirtualBox for Mac). It'd be great if a Windows user could try it. The only Windows machine I have is a virtual machine. Thanks so much for hosting this, Bert. :) Best, Jon -- Jonathan Kulp http://www.jonathankulp.com ___ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel

After all, if somebody can't figure out CG 1.1, then there's not much hopes of them producing good patches for C++. :) Cheers, - Graham ___ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel

Here are the exact steps I followed (see if you think they're noob-friendly enough): 1. Install the OS in VirtualBox, then restart the virtual machine and log in 2. open a terminal 3. open firefox 4. Get lilypond source code from git by copying the terminal commands in CG (have to use Ctrl+Shift+V to paste into terminal) Why not make a shell script that gets the lilypond source code, and make that part of your distribution? I'd thought of that but I don't yet know how to make a file appear in a user's home directory, which is where a script like this should go. The remastersys command creates a system install disc with no users--users are created during the install process. I'll check into it. On the other hand it won't hurt a newbie to run a handful of commands in the terminal. :) Bert, if you send me ftp login info privately I can upload it to your server. Maybe I can do it at the office in evening hours and it'll go a lot faster. I only have 256K upload speed at home. :( If you'd rather snail mail me a copy, I'd upload it for you (but I can't do it next week; I'll be in England). Thanks for the offer, but it's uploading to Bert's site now. It's been going for four hours and probably has another 2 to go. I'm getting a whopping 36Kbs upload speed. Horrible. I'm paying for 256K, which is bad enough. Sigh. I'll let you guys know when it's done uploading so you can try it out if you want.
