all embedded PostScript too if you have Ghostscript
installed.
+For running LilyPond successfully you have to help TeX and
+MetaFont find various files. The recommended way of doing
+so is adjusting the environment variables in the start-up
+scripts of your shell. An example is given here for the
+Bourne shell:
+
+
+
+
+ export MFINPUTS="/usr/local/share/lilypond/mf:"
+ export TEXINPUTS="/usr/local/share/lilypond/tex:"
+
+
+
+
+The empty path component represents and MetaFont's default
+search paths. Scripts with the proper paths for the bourne
+and C-shell respectively are generated in build-
+scripts/out/lilypond-profile and buildscripts/out/lilypond-
+login during compilation.

+Building the website requires pnmtopng. The version of pnm-
+topng that is distributed with RedHat 5.1 contains a bug
+(pnmtopng is dynamically linked to the wrong version of
+libpng). Recompile it from source, and make sure that the
+pnmtopng binary is linked statically to the libpng that is
+
+
+included in libgr.
+
+
+
+
+

+ rm libpng.so*
+ make pnmtopng
+
+
+
+
+
+You can then install the new pnmtopng into /usr/local/bin/

6: CONFIGURING and COMPILING
- configure --enable-tex-dir=XXXX --enable-mf-dir=YYYY
+ configure
make
make install
This will install a number of files, something close to:
+
+
+
/usr/local/man/man1/mi2mu.1
/usr/local/man/man1/convert-mudela.1
/usr/local/man/man1/mudela-book.1
/usr/local/bin/mi2mu
/usr/local/share/lilypond/*
/usr/local/share/locale/{it,nl}/LC_MESSAGES/lilypond.mo
- /usr/lib/texmf/texmf/tex/lilypond/*
-
-
-
-You should specify directories that are in 's and MetaFont's
-include path with the options (--enable-tex-dir) and
---enable-mf-dir. If you don't specify any directories, the
-include directory is detected dynamically, which is unreli-
-able. The above assumes that you are root and have the GNU
-development tools, and your make is GNU make. If this is
-not the case, you can adjust your environment variables to
-your taste:
+The above assumes that you are root and have the GNU devel-

-PUTS accordingly.

-If you want to install GNU LilyPond in /usr/local, and your

--enable-checking
+Options to configure include:
-
-Other options include:
-
-
---enable-shared
- Make a shared library (gnu/linux, solaris (?) only )
- (TEMPORARILY OUT OF ORDER)
-
+--enable-guile
+ Link in GUILE (experimental)
--enable-printing
Enable debugging print routines (lilypond -D option)
--enable-optimise
- Set maximum optimisation: compile with -O2
+ Set maximum optimisation: compile with -O2. This can
+ be unreliable on some compiler/platform combinations
+ (eg, DEC Alpha and PPC)
--enable-profiling
Compile with support for profiling.
---enable-tex-prefix
- Set the directory where TeX and Metafont live.
-
---enable-tex-dir
- Set then directory TeX input is in (detected as a
-
-
- subdir of tex-prefix). This should be a directory that
- is reachable both for tex and latex. On my system the
- best choice would be
- /usr/lib/texmf/texmf/tex/generic//.
-
---enable-mf-dir
- Set the directory metafont input is in (idem). On my
- system the best choice would be
- /usr/lib/texmf/texmf/fonts/source/public/.
-
--enable-config
Output to a different configuration file. Needed for
multi-platform builds
ing. Then I'd use the following for the normal build,
-
-
-
-
configure --prefix=~ --disable-optimise --enable-checking
make
make install
+
+
+
and for the profiling version, I specify a different config-
uration.
o The -O2 option to gcc triggers a gcc bug on DEC Alpha
in dstream.cc. You should turn off this flag for this
+
+
file.
This is what I type in my xterm:
+
+
+
+
lilypond someinput.ly
tex someinput.tex
xdvi someinput&
make gifs

in the directory Documentation.
You can make the rpm by issuing
projects / lilypond.git / blobdiff
