Re: text font problems with 2.6.4 for windows?

[Mats Bengtsson]

I did use the full installation, not only the upgrade, but I didn't remove
the previous installation first.

Trying Uninstall + Install of mingw LilyPond 2.6.4 is unfortunately much
less successful. Double clicking on a .ly file or drag&drop onto the 
LilyPond
icon doesn't produce anything. When I go back to version 2.6.3, it works 
fine.
One problem is that I've never been able to run mingw LilyPond from any kind
of command line, neither with version 2.6.3 or 2.6.4 or earlier versions.
lilypond -h
does give a normal response but if I try anything else, it just 
complains about
"unable to find file "ice-9/boot-9.scm" in load path"

When I set LILYPOND_VERBOSE=1 at the command prompt and run
lilypond -h, I get a number of warning printouts about missing files and
directories, but these are exactly the same both for 2.6.3 and 2.6.4.

I finally tried to install 2.6.4 on top of 2.6.3, which seems to work well
and all fonts are found as usual.
