Re: Lilypond under Leopard

[Eric Knapp]

I have successfully compiled lilypond 2.11.50 and 2.11.52 on my mac.
It is worth the effort since the resulting application is so much
faster. How did your efforts fail? MacPorts can be fussy and I had to
do some juggling of dependencies to get everything installed
correctly. And a few of the required ports were broken the day I tried
the install. When that happens you have to know the macports system
pretty well to get things running. Maybe I can help you? Let me know
if you want to try again with some assistance.
