Re: LilyPond 2.23.7 released

Hi,

2.23.7 appears to introduce a bug in SVG output under macOS:

%%% BEGIN %%%

\version "2.23.7"

\new Staff
{
  \time 3/4
  c'2.
}


%%% END %%%

macOS 12.3.1 produces the following:

$ lilypond --svg example.ly
GNU LilyPond 2.23.7 (running Guile 2.2)
Processing `example.ly'
Parsing...
Interpreting music...
Preprocessing graphical objects...
Finding the ideal number of pages...
Fitting music on 1 page...
Drawing systems...;;; note: source file /Users/trevor/lilypond-2.23.7/share/lilypond/2.23.7/scm/lily/output-svg.scm
;;;       newer than compiled /Users/trevor/lilypond-2.23.7/lib/lilypond/2.23.7/ccache/lily/output-svg.go
ice-9/eval.scm:351:13: Wrong number of arguments to #<procedure embedded-glyph-string (a b c d e f g)>


The resulting SVG (attached here) is headed by a bright red banner announcing an error.

Strangely, the choice of time signature is important: the example above renders correctly in 4/4, even though the system-draw warning still appears.

The error appears to come from line 423 of .../share/lilypond/2.23.7/scm/lily/output-svg.scm, at which embedded-glyph-string is defined.

Note that the example above renders correctly with 2.23.6.

Trevor.

We are happy to announce the release of LilyPond 2.23.7. This is termed
a development release, but these are usually reliable. If you want to
use the current stable version of LilyPond, we recommend using the
2.22.2 version.

Starting with this release, LilyPond requires Guile 2.2 and the
official binaries were created with the new infrastructure developed
over the past months. Issues reported for the previous release have
been addressed, in particular regarding performance (by integrating
compiled bytecode) and on Windows, where it is now possible to extract
the provided zip archive with the Windows Explorer and use special
characters in filenames. Please test this release and let us know about
problems that you encounter.
