How to install Lilypond in Puppy after 2.13.42? |
|
Because of the faster lilypond compilation I prefer puppy-linux.
But since the version 2.13.42 I cannot install lilypond anymore.
As far as version 2.13.41 everything worked perfectly.
http://lilypond.org/download/binaries/
Message in terminal:
Untarring lilypond-2.13.56-1.linux-x86.sh
bzip2: (stdin) is not a bzip2 file
tar: Child died with signal 13
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
Regards guitar

I doesn't knew that LilyPond was already on 2.13.xx series...
I were using 2.12.3!
Going to check it out to see what happens...

Hi guitar and gustavoYz !
did you have got further results on lilypond install on Puppy?
did one of you post to the lilypond-users forum?
Here, I got a try on a fresh Dpup-Squeeze-4.99.2 and:
- the last stable lilypond-2.14.1-sh does not install properly:
got the same message error
Code: | bzip2: (stdin) is not a bzip2 file
tar: Child died with signal 13
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors. |
I also tried to
#sh lilypond-2.14.1-sh --tarball
to get its tar.bz2 archive; but Xarchiver shows it as empty and
#tar -xvjf lilypond-2.14.1.tar.bz2
returns also
Code: | tar: Child died with signal 4 |
and
#bzrecover lilypond-2.14.1.tar.bz2
does not bringt anything worth.
- the 2.13.41 version gets installed OK without adding any extra-dependency! ; but the 2.13.42 and following returns the above message error.
Note that 2.13.41 is well that usable (I come from 2.10.33 ...!).
Cheers, Charlie

Puppy may still have bzip2 --version
bzip2, a block-sorting file compressor. Version 1.0.5, 10-Dec-2007.
But since
6 Sept 2010 (bzip2, version 1.0.6)
does exists .
And according to the page
lilypond-2.13.32-1.linux-x86.sh 03-Sep-2010
lilypond-2.13.33-1.linux-x86.sh 11-Sep-2010
Seems to need a newer bzip2 ??
The 2-15.2-1.tar.gz src extracted still .

I've totally forgotten of this issue...
I've packed the 'static' version time ago (can't remember the exact number) on Quirky 1.2, which is the one that i'm using.
I'll upload it tomorrow if you want to test it (not at home now).

Dl'ed the src ,
compiled fine ,
also
Code: | bunzip2 -t -v /COMPILE/Lilypond/lilypond-2.15.2-1.linux-x86.tar.bz2 |
/COMPILE/Lilypond/lilypond-2.15.2-1.linux-x86.tar.bz2: bad magic number (file not created by bzip2)
You can use the `bzip2recover' program to attempt to recover
data from undamaged sections of corrupted files.
I also looked inside the .pet :
is in there .
I ran bzip2recover ../ lilypond-2.15.2-1.linux-x86.tar.bz2
and that created
/COMPILE/Lilypond/rec00002lilypond-2.15.2-1.linux-x86.tar.bz2
...
/COMPILE/Lilypond/rec00066lilypond-2.15.2-1.linux-x86.tar.bz2
66 single .tar.bz2 files .
The first one extracted apparently ok by xarchive with message "Wrapper exited with an error" , but this happens also sometimes after renaming .pet to .tar.gz .
Have not had time to launch a
Code: | for i in * ; do bunzip -v $i ; done
for i in * ; do tar -xf $i ; done |

Hallo Karl Godt,!
still trying to install lilypond-2.14.1.1: browsing the lilypond-users archive shows that only Puppy users have this .sh install problem; and version 2.14.1.1 works OK for other users. So I wonder why it does not install on Puppy.
I tried the .sh install on Dpup Squeezed 4.99 as also on puppy4.20: same results on both distros.
I also used
#sh lilypond-2.14.1.1-x86.sh --tarball
to get the lilypond-2.14.1.1:tar.bz2 archive; and afterwards
# bzip2recover lilypond-2.14.1.1.tar.bz2
here got indeed 66 files among them the rec0001-lilypond-2.14.1.1.tar.bz2 which is not empty: Xarchiver shows files in it - licences copies files and binary ones such as midi2.ly, lilypond, etc... whith their respective sizes (about 3,9 MB for lilypond file);
The other rec0002- to rec0066-lilypond-2.14.1.1.tar.bz2 are shown as empty by Xarchiver.
Xarchiver extracts the binary files in /usr/bin ...! whereas the sh installer would normaly extratcs them into /usr/local/bin ; and the /usr/bin/lilypond binary is not 3.9MB but now much less than 3.9MB (ca. 300K ...!), and off course is not working;
So what?
Cheers, Charlie

Yes , trying to bunzip2 -v all others worked to leave a .tar and all these following 65 .tar have their relative size , but won't tar -xf .
This is what I got extracting the first .tar by cmdline :
tar -xf /Lilypond/rec00001lilypond-2.15.2-1.linux-x86.tar
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
The lilypond is packaged with 'gub' , that would be the next to google for .

Hi,
I went to get a try on installing lilypond-2.14.1.1.sh on Mageia see Barry Kauler's blog
http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02310
just did in a terminal
#sh lilypond-x86-2.14.1.1.sh
...got installed like a charm ...
...but the compile of a code.ly file is not that fast as with Puppy ! (referring to using lilypond-2.13.41 which sh install OK on Puppy) ...
What could cause that the very same lilypond-2.14.1.1 version does install OK on another linux distro than Puppy; and that lilypond version prior to 2.13.42 also sh install OK; and later don't ...?
( If I good remeber, it was also the case on puppy3.0.1 with lilypond 2.10.33: no sh install; but well on Puppy 4 and later till 2.13.41).
Charlie

Subject description: extract of the lilypond tar.bz2 archive freezes Puppy |
|
Hi,
continuing to try to install 2.14.1 on Puppy Dpup-Squeezed-4.99.2:
I got a try doing this: getting the tar.bz2 archive from another distro
1st trial
- downloaded lilypond-x86-2.14.1.sh on another distro than Puppy, i.e. mageia
and there did in a terminal
Code: | #sh lilypond-x86-2.14.1.sh --tarball |
and so got lilypond-x86-2.14.1.tar.bz2 20MB;
- copy this lilypond-x86-2.14.1.tar.bz2 to (pfix-ram) a live-cd session of puppy: freespace = 1,7 GB;
- there opened it with Xarchiver: all the files were shown; then extracted them to / ; I then intended to get a try on the test.ly testfile documented on the download page of Lilypond;
from here Puppy got frozen: no longer possible to open Seamonkey nor rox ...nothing! Here tried Ctrl-Alt-Backspace to restart X ....got black screen; then pushed on start button till power down.
2d trial:
- copied the lilypond-x86-2.14.1.tar.bz2 as on 1st trial steps 1 to 2 above;
- in a terminal did
Code: | tar -xf lilypond-x86-2.14.1.tar.bz2 |
- results: Puppy got froozen as above
3st trial
- installing later version (pets compiled in wary and downloadable from
http://puppylinux.org/wikka/tar and so on )
of tar, grep, bzip2 on Dpup;
- did in a terminal
Code: | #sh lilypond-x86-2.14.1.sh |
results: as above posts
Code: | ...
tar:...is not a tar.bz2 file
... |
Any idea is welcome,
cheers, Charlie

Subject description: Lilypond 2.14.2 slackware archive installs OK on slacko 5.3.1 |
|
Hi,
the proposed lilypond 2.14.2 slackware archive (last stable at now 08 feb 2012) - see link below.
This get installed like a charm on slacko5.3.1 (without need of extra dependency).
download here the slackware archive
http://slackware.schoepfer.info/13.37/slackware/ap/lilypond-2.14.2-i686-1jsc.txz
Install it (click on it and answer "yes"),
Now let's run an example (for those who do not know Lilypond - runs only from command line !!) open a terminal and type:
Code: |
# cd /usr/share/lilypond/2.14.2/ly/
# lilypond Welcome_to_LilyPond.ly <--- here press Enter
...
blablibla
...
# |
This produces a Welcome_to_LilyPond.pdf file in the same directory.
Files with .ly extensions are text encoded scores.
Go to the lilypond.org website to find more about how to produce music scores !
Also version 2.12.3 debian and ubuntu available archives on the same lilypond.org download page.
So might also run on lupu528 (not tested).
Enjoy !
Charlie

Hi,
Result of further tests on Lupu528 and Slacko5.3.1:
1. trying to install the later lilypond-2.14.2-linux-i686.sh fails; same error message as mentionned above in this thread.
2. trying to install the ubuntu and debian archives proposed on the lilypond download page:
both need extra dependencies, so I gave up. Moreover, those archives seem being stripped out of some file (I did not found the example Welcome_to_Lilypond.ly for instance)
Only the proposed slackware works OOTB on slacko as reported in previous post. As also the lilypond sh installer on war and racy (according to forum member guitar -see above - and tested here on last racy).
Cheers, Charlie
