I used to have LilyPond installed via MacPorts and use it for development.
But maintaining that became too hard -- there would be occasional random
breakages that would need to be fixed. So I moved to just using LilyDev
for my development environment. I do install development releases on my
Mac and use them with Frescobaldi for my engraving work.
