You are right, however, the latest versions of the Lilypond-tree can
also be installed without a problem if you get the latest versions the
following programs (pango, pango-devel, python-devel, guile-devel,
msgfmt, and bison) with urpmi. Get them from a good mirror of the
urpmi-mirrors (Hint: easyurpmi etc.). The source-tar-ball can then be
installed without a problem, also preventing possible difficulties with
the urpmi- database.
To compile Lilypond takes me, on my normal work-system, about 4 hours,
but it is a slow one (533 MHz celeron).
Lilypond gives me great results, but I need to tune the output of
lilypond-book to much, but that is may be because I set (very?) high
standards for my work, which I think only Lilypond can deliver.
Thanks and compliments to the dev-team.
