This would suggest that we are not talking about bin/book_latex.py but
rather about something like out/book_latex.ly regarding which version is
found from the search path.

Yes, and it very much does not look like your change affected any file
that is actually getting used by Python.  Since I don't have a Windows
system, my own directory structure is different here.

It's probably worth mentioning that the followup errors here don't
exactly seem like the most user friendly thing either.

Well, it would appear that we should aim to put out 2.19.3 next weekend.
It will contain the fix and then we can hopefully get feedback on the
actual installation rather than a botched attempt of patching the
correct file.
