The pdftex option is still very experimental and is not always
updated when lilypond changes. Use 'ly2dvi -p' to get a PDF
file.

Hello,

I am quite new to lilypond, but as far as I explored it, I like it.
But now I have a problem. I took the source code from the lilypond
tutorial

------------------- CODE -------------------
\score {
 \notes {
    \time 3/4
    \clef bass
    c2 e4 g2.
    f4 e d c2.
 }
 \paper { }
}
------------------- CODE -------------------


saved it to "t.ly" and invoked "ly2dvi --pdftex t.ly". And this is what
it said:

------------------- Output -------------------
Running LilyPond...
GNU LilyPond 1.6.9
Now processing: `t.ly'
Verarbeite...

ly2dvi:Fehler: LaTeX failed on the output file.

ly2dvi:Fehler: The error log is as follows:

LaTeX error
------------------- Output -------------------

I have read that the pdftex option is still under development or isn't
it working at all? Or is it a problem on my side?
The normal ly2dvi works fine. I also can do a "ly2dvi -k t.ly" and a
"pdflatex t.latex" from the ly2dvi directory and get a good looking pdf
file.

Hope you can help.
