+You can also compile the .deb for Debian yourself, do:
+@example
+
+ apt-get -b source lilypond
+@end example
+
+If you're real impatient, you may even do:
+@example
+
+ cd lilypond-x.y.z # a previous version
+ uscan # download and build latest directly from upstream
+@end example
+
+
+Debian's @TeX{} installation is a bit short on memory, you may want to
+increase it like this:
