[Denemo-devel] [bug #47244] Help with Ubuntu Install

[Richard Shann]

Follow-up Comment #6, bug #47244 (project denemo):

No problem - if you find out more, you will help others by updating this bug.
I understand the (gulp), however, although the instructions on denemo.org
speak of installing as root (which does have the potential to disturb other
software) you can do the configuring and making and installing entirely as a
normal user which won't cause any problems.
The trick is 
1) to specify where you want your new version of Denemo to be installed -
somewhere in your home directory. You do this at the configure step, by
passing a parameter - so configure is like this:

./configure --prefix=/home/william/mydenemo

2) making sure you run your own version of denemo not the one installed in the
system (you could uninstall that to avoid errors). That is, you double click
on the executable found at

/home/william/mydenemo/usr/bin/denemo

Having built it yourself, you don't need all the stuff that is in the
Launch_Denemo script. But you would need to install LilyPond as a separate
package. (And again, you may want to get an up-to-date version from
lilypond.org).
