2013-10-27 17:08:41 Iain Lane description The current build is done with a version of Metafont that is known to be broken. Every single file produced by this compilation of LilyPond has a spectacularly broken treble clef at the start of each line, and most note flags are quite broken as well. The current developer version for LilyPond (2.17.29) refuses to compile with the broken Metafont version. Unfortunately, 2.16.2 does not yet contain the respective check. Metafont versions announcing itself as anything between 1.600 and 1.802 (inclusively) are broken. The currently distributed version of Metafont with Ubuntu is 1.802. Since this affects _every_ output file produced by LilyPond, this bug is _critical_. The texlive-binaries package needs to get updated (Debian already did so), and preferably the build dependencies must reflect the inability of building a working version of LilyPond with the current version of texlive-binaries, which is 2013.20130529.30792-1build2. The corresponding bug in texlive-bin is https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/texlive-bin/+bug/1220653 which has not seen a lot of interest. This build of LilyPond has to be withdrawn as _fast_ _as_ _possible_. It is not possible to typeset music of useful quality with it. [ Description ] metafont / metapost in texlive-binaries shipped with 13.10 is broken. It renders characters incorrectly and breaks note flags. [ Proposed fix ] Update metapost to 1.803, the next upstream release after the one we're shipping. It only contains two bug fixes - from the changelog: 2013-05-22 Taco Hoekwater <taco@luatex.org> * svgout.w: fix a problem with overly large characters in SVG output mode when prologues != 3. * mp.w: quick fix for a fatal crash during free-ing of TFM metric data at the end of the run. pmpost (Debian patch) needs updating too; this was taken from Debian's git repository. lilypond needs a no-change rebuild with the new texlive-binaries after that is accepted. [ Regression potential ] Bug fixes only. Check that metapost still works. [ Original report ] The current build is done with a version of Metafont that is known to be broken.
