Re: [Frescobaldi] cannot add lilypond 2.19.57 to lilypond preference

[Federico Bruni]

I had the same problem years ago. I wanted to have LilyPond and 
Frescobaldi installed on a USB stick because I needed to use in a 
computer where I could not install any software.

I think I asked for help on lilypond-user, bat cannot find it in the 
archive.
I vaguely remember that the error was due to lilypond "relocation".
