After sending this I found that I could also easily install the MS 
Windows version (on W98).  (I don't intend to actually use it there).  I 
see that there is a LilyPond menu folder with 7 items.

I was just able to find a single menu item pointing to /usr/bin/lilypond 
under "Multimedia/Jack and More."  Even if this pointed to 
lilypond-2.6.0 what sense does it make to point to the executable 
without providing a way to enter the necessary parameters?  The same 
thing seems to be true of the MS Windows LilyPond menu entry except 
there it starts a never ending task.

I can do that either now or when we finish this discussion.  Since this 
autopackage is completely new to me where and what is autopackage 
development?

Will there be or should I just take Mats' suggestion?
