Hi, I asked how to go about moving lilypond to factory on the packaging list and it was suggested that I ask on this list as well as a submit request. I've made submit request id 35916 already and here are my reasons :- I maintain contrib lilypond and multimedia:apps rosegarden4,rosegarden4 should "Require: lilypond" but because lilypond resides in contrib I can only recommend it in rosegarden because a new user might not have the contrib repo enabled. Lilypond used to be part of the main distribution and I belive it was moved to contrib due to lack of maintainer. I'm also not sure which devel project it should go to, it's a musical notation printing program, so I have submitted it from contrib.

After sleeping on it, multimedia:apps makes the most sense. It doesn't really fit in with the other packages in printing and multimedia:apps rosegarden4 is the only package requiring it. I will revoke the submit request from contrib to factory and put it in multimedia:apps. Thanks Dave P

Canorus depends on Lilypond for printing, afaik.

No problem.

Another reason why it shouldn't be in contrib but in the main repo. Regards Dave P
