Event Timeline
Tried to package, however LillyPond requires Guile version 1.8.8. Version 2.x of Guile is not currently supported.
"guile-devel, version: 2.0.14, release: 5" is the current Solus package version.
Still requires guile <1.9 as of lilypond-2.19.65.tar.gz

%make_installLooks like unstable release 2.19.80+ support guile2 (guile >= 2). Moving this package to Accepted for Inclusion pending new attempt at packaging..
I gave a try with version 2.19.80 and I got this error during the build
ERROR: Please install required programs: guile-config < 1.9.0 (installed: 2.0.14)
Closing since upstream does not appear to be actively moving towards a new stable release with guile2
I'd like to come back to Solus but can't seem to locate Lilypond and Frescobaldi packages. I remember using Solus 3 last year when the latest versions of those two packages were available. I welcome your advice. Thank you!
