Lilypond suddenly stopped building for x86_64 for some reason or other
and I became involved due to being the maintainer of rosegarden which
needs lilypond. It was then that Petr commented out the spec lines and I
suppose added the tarball docs to the package, he is under a lot of work
pressure and doesn't have the time. Here is the body of the reply I
received when I answered his call for someone to take over :-

I suspect that janneke is no longer with novell as this is the address Petr 
gave me yesterday and to which I sent a similar email to the one I sent to the 
list address@hidden
Anyway I'm a community (unpaid) maintainer so I'm not subject to similar 
pressures just have to do paying work sometimes. I'm busy using rpmbuild to 
fine tune spec file and get the files in the right places ATM and I'll let you 
know if I need anymore help.
