It seemed it was the problem with the lilypond makefile that J�rg Anders posted
recently that prevented Lilypond from compiling.
Yet after I copied every conceivable directory to /usr/local/share/lilypond, it
still does not work. When I try to process the example "menuet.ly", I get the
following error messages:
amelie@amy:~/music/input > ly2dvi menuet.ly

The "make htmldoc" worked, however.
Any ideas?
