Re: Now using 2.11 and noticed something interesting

I'm puzzled. I understand that you installed 2.11, and 2.11.63 appears in the first snippet, but when you give the code for the piece, it shows the version as 2.10.33. Did you not run convert-ly against your .ly files? If not, that could be a source of problems.

You are right - that first time I hadn't run convert-ly, I simply ran the file through the parser. My mistake. Now no more of those before mentioned warnings.

Now I have run several files through the parser and the terminal window messages show the convert running successfully, and shows the new version number. But when I open and view the .ly file I see the old version number, not changed. Should it be changed by convert-ly? This has happened in 3 different files so far tested.
Also note the 2.11.62 in the conversion process -

Example:

address@hidden:~$ convert-ly "Mi Lupita - bari.ly"
convert-ly (GNU LilyPond) 2.11.63
Processing `Mi Lupita - bari.ly'...
Applying conversion: 2.11.2, 2.11.5, 2.11.6, 2.11.10, 2.11.11, 2.11.13, 2.11.15, 2.11.23, 2.11.35, 2.11.38, 2.11.46, 2.11.48, 2.11.50, 2.11.51, 2.11.52, 2.11.53, 2.11.55, 2.11.57, 2.11.60, 2.11.61, 2.11.62
% LilyPond
\include "english.ly"
\version "2.11.62"
\header{
    title = "Mi Lupita"

This is the file header before convert-ly -

% LilyPond
\include "english.ly"
\version "2.10.33"
\header{
    title = "Mi Lupita"

And it remained the same after running convert-ly.

Another example of a file that hadn't been touched yet by lily or convert-ly since before the upgrade to 2.11.63:

Original untouched file, and the same after running convert.ly -

% LilyPond
\include "english.ly"
\version "2.10.33"
\header{
    title = "Que Bison Te Miras"

convert-ly output from the above file -

address@hidden:~$ convert-ly "Que Bison Te Miras - bone.ly"
convert-ly (GNU LilyPond) 2.11.63
Processing `Que Bison Te Miras - bone.ly'...
Applying conversion: 2.11.2, 2.11.5, 2.11.6, 2.11.10, 2.11.11, 2.11.13, 2.11.15, 2.11.23, 2.11.35, 2.11.38, 2.11.46, 2.11.48, 2.11.50, 2.11.51, 2.11.52, 2.11.53, 2.11.55, 2.11.57, 2.11.60, 2.11.61, 2.11.62
% LilyPond
\include "english.ly"
\version "2.11.62"
\header{
    title = "Que Bison Te Miras"

Now here's something really strange - The above output shows the conversion was successful, the .ly file does not show the new version (still shows the old version), the resulting .pdf shows the new version at the bottom of the page. Yet in the .ly file the new version number is nowhere to be found.
