On the assumption that it would have been pointed out if this link was dangerous phished spam (apologies, Mr Sorensen!!) I have decided to install this development version to replace my slashed-out 32-bit Lilyponds. Has anyone else - or are others who use Mac Catalina waiting for Lilypond 2.20 to possibly include a 64-bit version (if even then) linked from the Lilypond site? I can't seem to find much followup on this topic, and nothing? in our mailing list (maybe I need to search better) that mentions the below (rather unusually large, maybe because 64-bit?) unofficial development update. Eric, I’m not sure what you are waiting for. Right now, we are at the point where there is no way for us to make a lilypond 64-bit version because we need the Apple Xcode software, and the license allows it to be only used on Apple hardware. We do not have Apple build hardware, and as a GNU project, it’s unlikely that using Apple build hardware for all of our distributions would be acceptable to the team. I think it’s possible that we could get an approved binary eventually hosted on the LilyPond website. A couple of developers are trying to make that happen. In the meantime, Hans has provided an installable distributable package created in MacPorts, which is at the link referred to below. I’ve mirrored that link on a site that might be considered to be less dangerous for spam or phishing: https://www.et.byu.edu/~sorensen/lilypond-devel-2.19.83_2.mpkg I’m only aware of one person who has installed that package, and they found that it works and it is a 64-bit package. You can read more about this on the lilypond-devel archives: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-devel/2019-10/msg00059.html https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-devel/2019-10/msg00272.html https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-devel/2019-10/msg00063.html I think our best hope going forward is for Marnen to succeed in making a 64-bit lilypond.app. I really hope he’s successful.

I’ll report back when I have some results to share. The install was successful. I didn’t know where it installed, but found it in /opt/lilypond . It successfully generated a correct-looking pdf and midi (I’ll verify them tomorrow) from a single source file (no includes but english.ly<http://english.ly>). The file was already version 2.19. I’ll try using convert-ly and more complex files tomorrow.

I’ll report back when I have some results to share. The install was successful. I didn’t know where it installed, but found it in /opt/lilypond . That's where it was supposed to be. It successfully generated a correct-looking pdf and midi (I’ll verify them tomorrow) from a single source file (no includes but english.ly<http://english.ly>). The file was already version 2.19. I’ll try using convert-ly and more complex files tomorrow. Yes, it was made from the latest development release, 2.19.83 Since this may not be of general interest, please give me some guidance on whether to continue posting to the group or confine it to those interested. Please report your experiences. Here's some test code that has been known to fail on 32-bit lilypond executables, but succeed on 64-bit linux executables. %%%% Start of code \version "2.19.82" { \time 4/4 \repeat unfold 1000 { c4 d e f } % TEN PAGES of music \repeat unfold 1000 { f1 } % + SIX MORE PAGES of music \repeat unfold 1000 { c4 d e f } % BUT WHEN ADDING MORE PAGES, fail NOW } %%%%% End of code I expect it to work, but it would be nice to get a confirmation. It's nice to know that this package can be installed.
