Thank you so much! Now it works, very well!

Yes, with apt-get, usually from packages made by some Lilypond
contributors.

apt-get did not work, I suppose because 2.4.0 never installed
completely. I have been trying to do drastic things which made things
worse. No, lilypond-snapshots are no longer available, they stopped
shortly after 2.4.2 because of Debian packaging problems of Lilypond,
and as far as I understood from one e-mail of Laura Conrad, it is no
longer possible to install 2.4 in Debian because of old libs.

Thanks. It helped a lot. As you can see I am a very inexperient user of
Linux, although I am happy to have come that far without any advisors.
It would be easier if I had not to be careful not to break anything
with the system the whole family uses.
I got rid of the two files
address@hidden:~# which -a lilypond
/usr/bin/lilypond
/usr/local/bin/lilypond
and installing again was enough.
I just don't know why in a root shell I get
address@hidden:~# lilypond -v
bash: /usr/bin/lilypond: No such file or directory
but it does not matter.

Now again via emacs. It was horrible these last months, to have to use
command line and have all files being dumped into home, having to move
them back to their directories.
I am thrilled to be able to use 2.8 now.
Thank you so very much.
Luise.
