these are the names of compilers - but I guess you mean that the target
O/S is GNU/Linux.

yes - the

      <row type="scheme">
        <action>DeleteSelectionLeaveEmpty</action>
        <menupath>/MainMenu/EditMenu/Select</menupath>
        <_label>Delete Selected Objects</_label>
        <_tooltip>Delete all selected objects and leave empty measures
behind</_tooltip>
      </row>

entry in Default.commands does not cause the command
DeleteSelectionLeaveEmpty to load. Bizarrely I had a version of this
file where it was labelled <builtin>, but this version had not leaked
onto the git repository. It will have been created by a Save Command Set
command.
I have tried as a new user to save a new command and it reports errors
g_warning("Unable to find metadata file for script %s", name); but I
have yet to look deeply into that.
