+ This should install ‘texi2html 1.82’ into ‘/usr/local/bin’, which
+ will normally take priority over ‘/usr/bin’ where the later,
+ pre-installed versions gets put. Now verify that your operating
+ system is able to see the correct version of ‘texi2html’.
+
+ texi2html --version
+
+ • Although not ‘required’ to compile LilyPond, if you intend to
+ contribute to LilyPond (codebase or help improve the documentation)
+ then it is recommended that you also need to install ‘git’.
+
+ sudo dnf install git
+
+ Also see *note (lilypond-contributor)Starting with Git::.
+
+ • To use the ‘lily-git.tcl’ GUI;
+
+ sudo dnf install tk
+
+ See *note (lilypond-contributor)lily-git::.
+
+ Note: By default, when building LilyPond’s documentation,
+ ‘pdfTeX’ is be used. However ligatures (fi, fl, ff etc.) may
+ not be printed in the PDF output. In this case XeTeX can be
+ used instead. Download and install the ‘texlive-xetex’
+ package.
+
+ sudo dnf install texlive-xetex
+
+ The scripts used to build the LilyPond documentation will use
+ ‘XeTex’ instead of ‘pdfTex’ to generate the PDF documents if
+ it is available. No additional configuration is required.
+
+Linux Mint
+..........
+
+The following instructions were tested on ‘Linux Mint 17.1’ and ‘LMDE -
+Betsy’ and will download all the software required to both compile
+LilyPond and build the documentation..
+
+ • Enable the _sources_ repository;
+
+ 1. Using the _Software Sources_ GUI (located under
+ _Administration_).
+
+ 2. Select _Official Repositories_.
+
+ 3. Check the _Enable source code repositories_ box under the
+ _Source Code_ section.
+
+ 4. Click the _Update the cache_ button and when it has completed,
+ close the _Software Sources_ GUI.
+
+ • Download and install all the LilyPond build-dependencies
+ (approximately 200MB);
+
+ sudo apt-get build-dep lilypond
+
+ • Download and install additional ‘build’ tools required for
+ compiling;
+
+ sudo apt-get install autoconf fonts-texgyre texlive-lang-cyrillic

+OpenSUSE
+........
+
+The following instructions were tested on ‘OpenSUSE 13.2’ and will

+
+ sudo zypper addrepo -f \
+ "http://download.opensuse.org/source/distribution/13.2/repo/oss/" sources
+

+ (approximately 680MB);
+
+ sudo zypper source-install lilypond
+
+ • Download and install additional ‘build’ tools required for
+ compiling;
+
+ sudo zypper install make
+
+ • Although not ‘required’ to compile LilyPond, if you intend to
