ok, thanks - I think I'll leave trying this until I've upgraded to the
new Debian stable. I see that the new Debian stable has dropped LilyPond
(and Denemo I think) because of Guile 1.8 (even though Denemo will work
with Guile 2.x), but I don't think that'll prove a problem, just a bit
more to do. (I'm not getting much done at the moment, unfortunately).

Well, by itself the trade-off for doing this is only positive if your
server is going to be doing something else useful overnight. What
*would* be (somewhat) useful would be to build from git with the
configure.ac modified in the way Johan Vromans is doing, so that the
version number has the git revision signature appended:

git clone git://git.savannah.gnu.org/denemo.git .
 mv configure.ac configure.ac~
 sed "s;^\\(AC_INIT(\\[.*\\], \\[\\)\\(.*\\)\\], \\(\\[.*\\])\\);\\1\\2-`git 
rev-parse --short HEAD`], \\3;" \ <
 configure.ac~ > configure.ac ./autogen.sh

That way we wouldn't need to bump the development version ...
