Lilypond problem - guile breaks it [SOLVED]

fdac · 2006-09-27 13:51:55

Hi all,

Any Lilypond users out there? I've installed the lilypond package from [community] which seems to be a development version, 2.9.3.

When running lilypond on a very basic test input file I get the following errors:

GNU LilyPond 2.9.3
Processing `test.ly'
Parsing...
/usr/share/lilypond/2.9.3/ly/music-functions-init.ly:102:1: error: GUILE signaled an error for the expression beginning here
#(use-modules (scm display-lily))invalid module name for use-syntax ((srfi srfi-39))

/usr/share/lilypond/2.9.3/ly/music-functions-init.ly:102:5: error: syntax error, unexpected '-', expecting '='
#(use-modules (scm display-lily))/usr/share/lilypond/2.9.3/ly/music-functions-init.ly:48:56: In expression (display-lily-init parser):

/usr/share/lilypond/2.9.3/ly/music-functions-init.ly:48:56: Unbound variable: display-lily-init

Any clues as to what might be causing this? I've tried digging around the forums and on the web with no luck.

I tried to make a new package in ABS of a different version but got a ' makeinfo not found' error. Also couldn't find the md5sums of other versions .tar.gz files on the lilypond download site....

Thanks
Francis

I don't know nothing about lilypond but your "makeinfo not found" looks like a makedepend. You gotta have makeinfo installed to compile the package. After you've made the package you can deinstall makeinfo.

md5sums can be generated with makepkg -g. Suggestion is to use makepkg -g >> PKGBUILD.

The wiki got this information.

AFAIK this is a problem in the guile package. There's a bug open for it, but I still haven't had enough time to take a good look at it.

Thanks..

I suspected it was not a bug in lilypond itself but in one of the other programmes it calls.

Therefore there is no point compiling a different version of lilypond.

Is it worthwhile changing back to a different guile version as a temporary fix?

Cheers

Edit - found bug report, will try downgrading guile as suggested in bug comments.

Thanks for guidance above, JGC. Shouldn't be any problem with downgrading guile, should there?

Hi, got it fixed by downgrading guile. Couldn't find a compiled package anywhere so here is the PKGBUILD I adapted from 1.6.8, just changed the pkgver and md5sums. Took a minute or three to compile on my Athlon 64 3500+.

pkgname=guile
pkgver=1.6.7
pkgrel=2
pkgdesc="Guile is a portable, embeddable Scheme implementation written in C"
url="http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/"
arch=(i686)
depends=(readline)
options=(NOLIBTOOL)
source=(ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/${pkgname}/${pkgname}-${pkgver}.tar.gz
        ltdl-gcc4.patch)
md5sums=('c2ff2a2231f0cbb2e838dd8701a587c5' '156f1aedd5cc6a6835f067b714ff37a6')

build() {
  cd ${startdir}/src/${pkgname}-${pkgver}
  patch -Np1 -i ${startdir}/src/ltdl-gcc4.patch || return 1
  ./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-networking
  make || return 1
  make DESTDIR=${startdir}/pkg install
}
