-NAME
- INSTALL - installing GNU LilyPond
-
-DESCRIPTION
- This page documents installation and compilation of GNU
- LilyPond
-
-ABSTRACT
- You do something which looks remotely like
-
- configure
- make
- make install
-
- The detailed instructions follow here.
-
-PREREQUISITES
- For compilation you need.
-
- o A GNU system: GNU LilyPond is known to run on these
- GNU systems: Linux (PPC, intel), FreeBSD, AIX,
- NeXTStep, IRIX, Digital Unix and Solaris.
-
- If you have the Cygnus WINDOWS32 port of the GNU
- utils, it will even work in Windows NT/95, but we
- don't promise to support it.
-
- o GNU C++ version 2.7 or newer (yes, 2.8 is fine).
-
- o Python
-
-RUNNING
- GNU LilyPond does use a lot of resources. For operation
- you need the following:
-
- o TeX
-
- o A PostScript printer and/or viewer (such as
- Ghostscript) is strongly recommended. Xdvi will show
- all embedded PostScript too if you have Ghostscript
- installed.
-
-RECOMMENDED
- Although not strictly necessary, these are recommended to
- have.
-
- o GNU make.
-
- o Flex (version 2.5.4 or newer).
-
- o Bison (version 1.25 or newer).
-
- o Perl-5. Most documentation was created with the
- perl's Plain Old Documentation. (I use 5.003)

-INSTALL(1) LilyPond documentation INSTALL(1)
-
-
- o Python. Although perl is nice, python is better. We
- will shift towards python for build scripts
-
- o GNU find
-
- o A fast computer (a full page of music typically takes
- 1 minute on my 486/133, using the --enable-checking
- compile. It's lot slower than most MusiXTeX
- preprocessors)
-
-CONFIGURING and COMPILING
- to install GNU LilyPond, simply type:
-
- configure
- make
- make install
-
- This will install the following files:
-
- /usr/local/man/man1/mi2mu.1
- /usr/local/man/man1/convert-mudela.1
- /usr/local/man/man1/mudela-book.1
- /usr/local/man/man1/lilypond.1
- /usr/local/lib/libflower.{so,a}
- /usr/local/bin/lilypond
- /usr/local/bin/mi2mu
- /usr/local/share/lilypond/*
- /usr/lib/texmf/texmf/tex/lilypond/*
-
- The TeX include directory is detected dynamically, but it
- can be adjusted with --enable-tex-prefix and --enable-tex-
- dir. 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:
-
- export CPPFLAGS="-I /home/me/my_include -DWEIRD_FOOBAR"
- configure
-
- CPPFLAGS are the preprocessor flags.
-
- the configure script is Cygnus configure, and it will
- accept --help. If you are not root, you will probably have
- to make it with
-
- configure --prefix=/home/me_myself_and_I/
-
- In this case, you will have to set MFINPUTS, and TEXINPUTS
- accordingly.
-
- If you want to install GNU LilyPond in /usr/local, and
- your TeX has no default hooks for local stuff (mine is
- broken too), you can do:

-
-
-
-
-INSTALL(1) LilyPond documentation INSTALL(1)
-
-
- configure --prefix=/usr/local --enable-tex-prefix=/usr/lib/texmf
-
- Since GNU LilyPond currently is beta, you are advised to
- also use
-
- --enable-debugging
- --enable-checking
-
- other options include:
-
- --enable-shared
- Make a shared library (gnu/linux, solaris (?) only )
-
- --enable-printing
- Enable debugging print routines (lilypond -d option)
-
- --enable-optimise
- Set maximum optimisation: compile with -O2
-
- --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 mf input is in (idem). On my
- system the best choice would be
- /usr/lib/texmf/texmf/fonts/source/public/.
-
- --enable-config
- Output to different configuration files. Needed for
- multi-platform builds
-
- All options are documented in the configure help The
- option --enable-optimise is recommended for Real Life
- usage.
-
- If you do
-
- make all
-
- everything will be compiled, but nothing will be
- installed. The resulting binaries can be found in the
- subdirectories out/ (which contain all files generated
- during compilation).

-
-CONFIGURING FOR MULTIPLE PLATFORMS
- If you want to compile LilyPond with different
- configuration settings, then, you can use the --enable-
- config option. Example: suppose I want to build with and
- without profiling. 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
- configuration.
-
- configure --prefix=~ --enable-profiling --enable-config=optprof --enable-optimise --disable-checking
- make configuration=optprof
- make configuration=optprof install
-
-
-INSTALLING
- If you have done a successful make, then a simple
-
- make install
-
- should do the trick.
-
- If you are doing an upgrade, please remember to remove
- obsolete .pk and .tfm files of the fonts. A script has
- been provided to do the work, see bin/clean-fonts.sh.
-
-CAVEATS
- 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.
-
- o Perl5.003 and Perl5.004 use different syntax for
- pod2html.
-
-EXAMPLE
- This is what I type in my xterm:
-
- lilypond someinput.ly
- tex someinput.tex
- xdvi someinput&
-
- This is what the output looks like over here:

-REDHAT LINUX
- RedHat Linux users can compile an RPM. A spec file is in
- make/out/lilypond.spec. You should install a gif file
- called lelie_icon.gif along with the sources. You can
- generate this gif file by typing
-
- make gifs
-
- in the directory Documentation.
-
-DEBIAN GNU/LINUX
- A Debian package is also available; contact Anthony Fok
- <foka@debian.org>. The build scripts are in the
- subdirectory debian/
-
-WINDOWS NT/95
- So, you're stuck with Windows, eh? Well, don't worry, you
- just need (to get) Cygnus' windows32 port of gnu
- development stuff; have a look at
- http://www.cygnus.com/gnu-win32.
-
- To make GNU LilyPond under, brr, aargh, shudder...
- windows32, well, simply type:
-
- bash configure
- make
-
- Note If you rely on broken DOS/Windows tools such as
- pkzip/WinZIP to unpack the distribution, make sure the
- entire source tree is unpacked correctly, in particular
- the empty out directories (flower/out, lib/out et. al.)
