I think I'm going to have to stick with my current version until someone with better expertise puts together a package for Linux Mint, whose software manager *still* points at 2.16.2. Someone will get around to it sooner or later. I've tried building from source, but the configure phase bombs out because build depends on python3 version >3.5 and I have version 3.4. I am NOT going to upgrade python and break loads of other stuff!!! Hi, Building from source is not recommended for regular users. Instead, we provide executable .sh installers you can just run in the shell: lilypond.org/unix.html These should work on any UNIX system. Best, Jean
