Hi Jean, your diagnostic sounds promising. I successfully installed the Frescobaldi Flatpak, but still cannot launch lilypond from the command line. Any idea how to get there? I'm building a docker container and I don't have much experience with docker, so getting to the Frescobaldi GUI is not straightforward.
I tried 2.24 by unpacking the .tar archive and it doesn't run. the lilypond command returns: /bin/sh: lilypond: not found even though the directory in in my PATH and the lilypond-book command returns: /usr/bin/lilypond-2.24.1/bin/lilypond-book: exec: line 10: /usr/bin/lilypond-2.24.1/bin/../libexec/python3.10: not found Prior to unpacking I installed the gcompat alpine package but I can't tell whether that is sufficient to get around the glibc issue. Thank you!
