Yes, seems to have been temporary. I tried it 3 times yesterday, but now it's working. I currently have an awkward problem with virtualbox on Ubuntu 16.04; it keeps on resizing the window one step smaller, until it's something like 50 pixels high and 300 pixels wide. This doesn't happen if I maximize the window. Very odd, and not unique to lilydev; I see this when I virtualize ubuntu 16.04, but not other operating systems. Very odd. I've logged in, but it doesn't seem like like git-cl is installed? The Contributor Guide says that it should be there: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/contributor/git_002dcl In a similar note, could we get a Terminal icon on the taskbar? Most people won't know that they can get an xterm by pressing ctrl-alt-t. In a related matter -- and please forgive me if we've discussed this before -- have we considered distributing an exported OS? In the virtualbox GUI, this is called "Export Appliance", but it can be done in a standard format so that (in theory) non-virtualbox people can run it. This would let people "get started" much faster, and without the intimidation of installing Linux. It might also be easier to customize a bunch of things, such as git-cl, and even putting a git clone of lilypond in there. I realize that this would increase the filesize; it looks like 1.8 Gb for the exported appliance, compared to 1.1 GB for the installer. (speaking of disk size, I see that the just-installed size is 3.1G. What's pushing it so high? texlive? I poked around a bit, but I couldn't find any packages that looks superfulous... maybe I'm just out of date with how large installed software is these days. I must admit that I'm shocked to see that my desktop /usr/ is 8.5G !)
