I've noticed that I don't have the most recent stable version of Lilypond, and would like to install 2.18.2 to see if some issues I'm having are resolved. The instructions on lilypond.org suggest installing with:
sh lilypond-2.18.2-1.linux-64.sh When I type this, though, I'm told, You are about to install LilyPond in /home/steven/lilypond A script in /home/steven/bin will be created as a shortcut. These directories don't exist, and I don't really want to create them just for one program. I'm the sole user of my machine, and I use the Ubuntu package manager. I think Lilypond is in /usr/bin. I'm new to installing things outside of Ubuntu's apt-get function. (Alas, their repositories don't have very new versions of Lilypond.) Is there a way to install Lilypond that will get rid of the old version, and put the new one where it should be? Thank you! steven _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
