Re: damn small lilypond

mkdir $HOME/lilypond
mount none -t tmpfs $HOME/lilypond
cd $HOME/lilypond
wget /url/of/lilypond.sh
./lilypond.sh
Figure out what packages you don't need, delete them and the .sh package, and copy everything else into a different, non-tmpfs directory in your home folder.

What would you do if you had to install lilypond v2.14.2 on computers running Ubuntu 10.04 (where lilypond is still v2.12), with the following limitations:

- only the standard packages distributed by Ubuntu can be installed on /
- the maximum space available in each /home directory is 50 MB

Lilypond sh package decompressed is around 60 MB.

I guess that the best solution is bringing a bunch of USB drives and copying the executables there.

But I wonder if there's any other solution...
I don't know ho many USB drives I'll need.

What happens if I remove usr/lib/python2.4 (22,4 MB)?

Thanks,
Federico
