-This document describes how to build LilyPond on Unix platforms. It is
-also known to run and compile on Windows NT/95/98 as well. More
-information on this topic can be found at the

@section Downloading
-Even numbered versions are `stable'. The webpages for the stable version
-(1.2) reside @uref{http://www.gnu.org/software/lilypond, on the GNU
-servers}. Big enhancements go into the latest odd numbered version
-(1.3), whose webpages are on @uref{http://www.lilypond.org/,the lilypond
-site}.
+Even numbered versions are `stable' (2.0, 1.8 etc), while odd version
+are development releases (2.1, 1.9, etc). Building LilyPond is an
+involved process, so if possible, download a precompiled binary from
+@uref{http://www.lilypond.org/,the lilypond site}.

-There are two options for upgrading sources.
+@subsection Font problems
-@itemize
-@item if you have an unpacked source tree of a previous version, you
-may the patches.
+If you are upgrading from a previous version of LilyPond, be sure to
+remove all old font files. These include @file{.pk} and @file{.tfm} files
+that may be located in @file{/var/lib/texmf}, @file{/var/spool/texmf},
+@file{/var/tmp/texmf} or @file{@var{prefix}/share/lilypond/fonts/}. A
+script automating this has been included, see
+@file{buildscripts/clean-fonts.sh}.
-@emph{If you upgrade by patching do remember to rerun autoconf after
-applying the patch}.
-@item if you have the @code{.tar.gz} file of a previous release, you can
-use
-@uref{ftp://ftp.xcf.berkeley.edu/pub/xdelta/, xdelta}.
- This is much safer than using patches, and is the recommended way.
-The following command produces @file{lilypond-1.4.3.tar.gz} from
-@file{lilypond-1.4.2.tar.gz} identical (up to compression dates) to the .3
-on the FTP site.

@section Emacs mode
-An emacs mode for LilyPond is included with the source archive as
-@file{lilypond-mode.el} and @file{lilypond-font-lock.el}. If you have
-an RPM, it is in @file{/usr/share/doc/lilypond-X/}. You have to install
-it yourself.
+An Emacs mode for entering music and running LilyPond is contained in
+the source archive in the @file{elisp} directory. @command{make
+install} installs it @var{elispdir}. The file @file{lilypond-init.el}
+should be placed to @var{load-path}@file{/site-start.d/} or appended
+to your @file{~/.emacs} or @file{~/.emacs.el}.
-Add this to your @file{~/.emacs} or @file{~/.emacs.el}:
-@example
- (load-library "lilypond-mode.el")
- (setq auto-mode-alist
- (cons '("\\.ly$" . LilyPond-mode) auto-mode-alist))
- (add-hook 'LilyPond-mode-hook (lambda () (turn-on-font-lock)))
+As a user, you may want add your source path or, e.g., @file{~/site-lisp/}
+to your @var{load-path}. Append the following line (modified) to your
+@file{~/.emacs}:
+@c any reason we do not advise: (push "~/site-lisp" load-path)
+@quotation
+@example
+(setq load-path (append (list (expand-file-name "~/site-lisp")) load-path))
@end example
-
-If you have the latest LilyPond-1.4.x Debian package, LilyPond-mode is
-automatically loaded, so you need not modify your @code{~/.emacs} file.

-@section Compiling for distributions
-
-@subsection Red Hat Linux
-
-Red Hat 7.0 i386 RPMS are available from
-@uref{ftp://ftp.cs.uu.nl/pub/GNU/LilyPond/binaries/}.
-
-You can also compile them yourself. A spec file is in
-@file{make/out/lilypond.redhat.spec}. This file is distributed along
-with the sources. You can make the rpm by issuing
-@example
-
- tar xfz lilypond-x.y.z.tar.gz
- rpm -bb lilypond-x.y.z/make/out/lilypond.redhat.spec
- rpm -i /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/lilypond-x.y.z
-
-@end example
-
-For running on a Red Hat system you need these packages: guile, tetex,
-tetex-latex, tetex-dvips, libstdc++, python, ghostscript.
-
-For compilation on a Red Hat system you need these packages, in addition
-to the those needed for running: glibc-devel, gcc-c++, libstdc++-devel,
-guile-devel, flex, bison, texinfo, tetex-devel, groff,
-libgr-progs.
-
-
-@b{Warning}
-
-There appears to be a problem with the Xdvi shipped with Red Hat 7.1.
-Symptoms: Xdvi responds very sluggishly or hangs while viewing
-lilypond output. The cause for this problem is unknown; you are advised
-to recompile Xdvi from source.
-
-@subsection LinuxPPC
-
-
-Some LinuxPPC RPMS should available from
-@uref{ftp://ftp.cs.uu.nl/pub/GNU/LilyPond/binaries/}.
-
-A LinuxPPC RPM can be made using the @file{lilypond.redhat.spec} file.
-
-@subsection SuSE
-
-Some SUSE RPMS should available from
-@uref{ftp://ftp.lilypond.org/pub/LilyPond/binaries/SuSE}.
-
-You can also compile a RPM for SUSE yourself. A spec file is in
-@file{make/out/lilypond.suse.spec}, see the instructions for building
-the Red Hat RPM.
-
-You must have the following packages: guile tcsh tetex te_latex te_kpath
-te_mpost libpng python gpp libgpp gettext autoconf netpbm libnetpb
-gs_serv gs_lib gs_fonts guile
-
-@subsection Slackware
-
-No precompiled packages for Slackware are available.
-
-Problems have been reported with Slackware 7.0; apparently, it ships
-with a faulty compiler. Do not compile LilyPond with -O2 on this
-platform.

+@section Vim mode
-A Debian package is also available. You may install it easily by running
-@command{apt-get} as root:
+A Vim mode for entering music and running LilyPond is contained in the
+source archive. For version 6.2 and newer, Vim-mode works directly after
+installing LilyPond. Otherwise, complete the following two steps.
+For earlier versions (and if @code{$VIM} environment variable does not
+fall-back to @file{/usr/local/share/vim}, see @code{:version} in vim),
+the LilyPond file type is detected if your file @file{~/.vim/filetype.vim} @c
+has the following content:
@example
- apt-get install lilypond lilypond-doc
+ if exists("did_load_filetypes")
+ finish
+ endif
+ augroup filetypedetect
+ au! BufNewFile,BufRead *.ly setf lilypond
+ augroup END

+@subsection Bison 1.875
-The build scripts are in the subdirectory @file{debian/}; you can
-make the .deb by doing, for example:
+There is a bug in bison-1.875: compilation fails with "parse error
+before `goto'" in line 4922 due to a bug in bison. To fix, either
+recompile bison 1.875 with the following fix:
@example

- $ tar xzf lilypond-1.4.3.tar.gz
- $ cd lilypond-1.4.3
- $ dch -p -v 1.4.3-0.local.1 "Local build."

+ $ cd lily; make out/parser.cc
+ $ vi +4919 out/parser.cc
+ # append a semicolon to the line containing "__attribute__ ((__unused__))
+ # save
+ $ make
@end example
-Use command @command{debuild} instead of @command{debuild -B} if you have
-a very fast machine and want to build the HTML, PS and DVI documentation
-too.
+@subsection Linking to kpathsea
-For compilation on a Debian GNU/Linux system you need these packages,
-in addition to the those needed for running:
+If kpathsea and the corresponding header files are installed in some
+directory where GCC does not search by default, for example in
+@file{/usr/local/lib/} and @file{/usr/local/include/} respectively,
+you have to explicitly tell configure where to find it. To do this:
-@itemize @bullet
-@item g++, cpp, libc6-dev, libstdc++<@var{your-libstdc++-version-here}>-dev
-@item libguile<@var{your-libguile-version-here}>-dev

+@item @code{export CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/share/texmf/include}
+@item @code{./configure}
@end itemize
+Once configure has found them, the paths are stored in
+@file{config.make} and will be used even if you don't have the
+environment variables set during make.
-Most of these are listed on the @samp{Build-Depends} line in the
-@file{debian/control} file. To ensure the creation of the lilypond deb is
-trouble-free, we recommend that you first install the following packages
-by running \@command{apt-get} as root before building the package:
-For Debian 2.2:
+@unnumberedsubsec Gcc-3.0.4

- apt-get install task-debian-devel task-c++-dev \
- python-base libguile6-dev tetex-bin tetex-dev \
- tetex-extra flex bison texinfo groff gs \
- netpbm pnmtopng m4 gettext
-@end example
+Gcc 3.0.4 is flaky; upgrade GCC.

+Flex 2.5.4a does not produce g++-3.1.1 compliant C++ code. To compile
+LilyPond with gcc-3.1.1 you may do
@example
- dpkg --purge lilypond lilypond1.3
+ CONF=gcc-3.1 ./lexer-gcc-3.1.sh
+ CPPFLAGS=-I$(pwd)/lily/out-gcc-3.1 CC=gcc-3.1 CXX=g++-3.1 \

+@unnumberedsubsec Solaris
@itemize @bullet
-@item AIX 4.3 ld
-
-The following is from the gcc install/SPECIFIC file.
-@quotation
- Some versions of the AIX binder (linker) can fail with a relocation
- overflow severe error when the -bbigtoc option is used to link
- GCC-produced object files into an executable that overflows the TOC.
- A fix for APAR IX75823 (OVERFLOW DURING LINK WHEN USING GCC AND
- -BBIGTOC) is available from IBM Customer Support and from its
- 27service.boulder.ibm.com website as PTF U455193.
-
- Binutils does not support AIX 4.3 (at least through release 2.9). GNU
- as and GNU ld will not work properly and one should not configure GCC
- to use those GNU utilities. Use the native AIX tools which do
- interoperate with GCC.
-@end quotation
+@item Solaris7, ./configure
-add -Wl,-bbigtoc to USER_LDFLAGS, ie:
+@file{./configure} needs a POSIX compliant shell. On Solaris7,
+@file{/bin/sh} is not yet POSIX compliant, but @file{/bin/ksh} or bash
+is. Run configure like:
@example
- LDFLAGS='-Wl,-bbigtoc' ./configure
+ CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/ksh ksh -c ./configure
+@end example
+or:
+@example
+ CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/bash bash -c ./configure
@end example
