Re: LilyPond is hosed! Any suggestions?

[Darren Nelsen]

Here you go! I've tried to install about ten different versions of LP  
since this happened, but none work now. I was at 2.11.19, but wanted  
to go with a stable version, and when I installed 2.10.19, that's  
when things blew! I'm currently on 2.10.13 (but I've gone back as low  
as the 2.8 branch with no luck.) Thanks!

We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System
Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things:

    #1) Respect the privacy of others.
    #2) Think before you type.
    #3) With great power comes great responsibility.
