Re: Lilypond 2.2.0: cannot produce postscript

[Mats Bengtsson]

I think we have solved the problem. For some reason, the slackware
distribution of tetex-2.0.2 has reorganized the directory structure
and defined
TEXPSHEADERS as .:$TEXMF/{dvips,fonts/enc,fonts/type1}//
in `kpsewhich texmf.cnf`

By default, the texmf.cnf file in teTeX 2.0.2 contains the following
definition of the variable
TEXPSHEADERS = .;$TEXMF/{dvips,pdftex,tex,fonts/type1}//

You may want to edit the file and add the directory tex in the
list of subdirectories to be searched.

As an alternative, link the files
/usr/local/share/lilypond/2.2.0/ps/*
into the directory
/usr/local/share/lilypond/2.2.0/dvips/

It may be a good idea that we move the files from the directory
tex/ to dvips/ in the LilyPond installation structure to get a
solution that's compatible with both the default teTeX setup and
the slackware version.
