Re: Problems with 2.4.4 under Slackware 9.1

[Michiel Lange]

Hiyas,

Another one who gets Lily installed from source... I have tried the last 
time with a 2.2 version, but did not get anything straight... I recall I 
had lotsa troubles with getting the fonts compiled and lots more...
But to keep up with development, patches and etcetera I would like to 
compile lily from source... Is there anyone who could hand out a how-to 
to compile Lily cleanly?
Possible things might include:
- which ./configure options to give
- what additional libraries are needed and how to install those
- How much coffee, coke and cigarettes you'll need, so you can have 
those on stock...
