RE: pango problem with lilypond 2.7

"Either you have to find a precompiled package with Pango 1.6 (or newer)

No rpm above 1.2 works on my system, so I guess that is out of the
question.

"or you can compile it yourself against your version of glibc."

You mean a pango.tar.gz file?  Those don't work either, keeps
complaining about glib 2.4

Maybe I am misunderstanding what you mean.  My unix skills are getting
much better, but I am still nowhere near an expert.

Thanks.

Either you have to find a precompiled package with Pango 1.6 (or newer)
that is compatible with your system or you can compile it yourself
against your version of glibc.
