Frescobaldi -- LilyPond editor

Versions of LilyPond

This flatpak package bundles the latest stable and the unstable versions of LilyPond. When you launch it the first time, Frescobaldi will detect only the stable version, installed in /app/bin (which has higher priority in the PATH environment variable). In order to use the unstable version of LilyPond, you must manually add the path /app/dev/bin/lilypond in LilyPond Preferences.

If you want to use a particular version of LilyPond which is not bundled in the flatpak, you should download the right binary for your platform from lilypond.org, unpack it in a folder (e.g. ~/.local/lilypond) and then grant access to that folder using either Flatseal or flatpak command line.

NOTE: self-compiled LilyPond will likely not work.

Beta branch

The beta branch of this repository will be used to test the latest unreleased Frescobaldi (if there's anything interesting to try) and/or a peculiar LilyPond installation (new features or dependencies).
