Note the leading / . On my system, for example, the location is
/home/gperciva/usr/lilypond/share/lilypond/current/ly
whereas a normal as-root installation of GUB on linux would
probably be something like
/usr/local/lilypond/share/lilypond/current/ly
In any case, this is explained in the LM, and is too involved to
be explained in that snippet.

I won't complain, but that doesn't address this particular case
at all. It's still a good idea, though. :)
