since my last message, i have finally been successful in getting
lilypond 1.8.0-1 running on RedHat 9, as follows:
1. installed guile-1.6.4-7.1.i386.rpm using command-line rpm (no
problems there)
2. installed lilypond-1.8.0-1.i386.rpm using command-line rpm (no problems)
3. installed lilypond-documentation-1.8.0-1.i386.rpm using command-line
rpm (no problems)
4. when running ly2dvi, got dynamic link error message (can't find
libguile-srfi-srfi-13-14-v-1.so)
5. installed guile-devel-1.6.4-7.1.i386.rpm to provide the .so file
6. ly2dvi runs fine
it looks like lilypond is dynamically linked and requires guile-devel,
but that dependency is not required by the lilypond rpm. perhaps that
needs to be fixed. is this a correct diagnosis, or is something else
going on here?
It is a packaging error in RedHat. The .so file should be in guile
not guile-devel. Thanks for getting to the bottom of this; I'll file a
bugreport at redhat.
