You say that the TeX backend is no longer supported (!). Why is this? The manual still regards .tex output as the default output format and plenty of users regard it as the expected thing. >> Lilypond is such a great thing, I'm glad that finally Debian users >> will have an up-to-date package at least in Debian unstable. > > Thanks! Yes, that's great. And don't forget the Ubuntu users. Well, I can't support everyone. Ubuntu can copy Debian, but I can't simultaneously handle that. >> Oh, and a request: the debian/ directory in the tarballs that you all >> distribute isn't very helpful to me > > I always liked to distribute this for users to build their own deb > package [from CVS]. What do you think? Well, it's a dangerous thing. Among other things, their version numbers might collide badly with the official Debian ones. Best it should have different package names to prevent this sort of thing from happening.
