Doc build failure: pngtopnm: Error writing single byte sample to file

[thSoft]

Hi all,

I finally tried to build the docs myself again after older failed  
attempts to be able to test my translations locally. I'm on OS X 10.5  
using MacPorts with latest LilyPond development binary installed.  
After installing the required dependencies via MacPorts and following  
the instructions of http://kainhofer.com/~lilypond/Documentation/contributor/Building-documentation.html#Building-documentation-without-compiling-LilyPond 
, the last command (nice make LILYPOND_EXTERNAL_BINARY=/Applications/
LilyPond-dev.app/Contents/Resources/bin/lilypond doc) fails with the  
following error message:

Invoking `pngtopnm ./fa/lily-f024223a.png.old | pnmscale -reduce 2 2>/
dev/null | pnmtopng -compression 9 2>/dev/null > ./fa/lily-

What could be the solution? Did anyone else encounter this?

FYI, the command is pngtopnm_ because I had to create a script for  
pngtopnm to run correctly as described in http://kainhofer.com/~lilypond/Documentation/contributor/Building-documentation.html#Building-documentation-without-compiling-LilyPond 
. So I renamed pngtopnm to pngtopnm_ and created /opt/local/bin/
pngtopnm with the following contents:

export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/local/lib
exec /opt/local/bin/pngtopnm_ "$@"
)

Thanks in advance,

I'm suspicious about renaming pngtopnm_.  Just leave /opt/ alone, and
make the pngtopnm and pnmtopng scripts as directed.  As long as the
location of those two scripts comes before /opt/local/bin in your
path, you'll be fine.

You were right. I finally managed to put the scripts' location before /
opt/local/bin in my path, and now it proceeds. But after a while, I  
get the following error:

Why is Century Schoolbook L Italic assumed to be in /Library/Fonts/
Verdana.ttf?! (Of course it exists, but it's the Verdana font.)

Seeing this, I wanted to build the manual without building all the  
‘input/*’ stuff, but I get the following error:

Does this kind of build require a successful full build of the  
documentation? If so, this must be mentioned in http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/contributor/Building-documentation#Building-documentation-without-compiling-LilyPond 
!

Dunno.  I know that OSX has various font issues.  This was just fixed
in GUB by using the latest freetype, fontconfig, pango, and fontforge.
 A similar solution might help for you?

BTW, are you on OSX 10.5 or 10.6?

Don't you want EXTERNAL_BINARY in there?

No, but if you want to use the built-in binary, you first need to
build the binary.

My software environment:
OS X 10.5.8
MacPorts 1.8.1
LilyPond 2.13.6
freetype 2.3.9
fontconfig 2.7.3
pango 1.24.5

Aha... Yes, reasonable, though then the CG should mention it there too.
So I tried this, but LilyPond failed to compile a snippet:

That all looks typical.  IIRC in gub we use freetype 2.3.11, but
that was to workaround an OSX 10.6 bug, so it shouldn't affect
you.

Which page in particular?  I thought the page about building the
docs without compiling lilypond was fairly simple, but I confess
that I don't know if anybody else has successfully completed it.

If you could send a patch for this page (later, once it's working
for you), that would be great.

Hmm.  Sometimes the EXTERNAL_BINARY trick will fail because a
snippet requires a newer version of lilypond.

Take a look at TOPDIR/out/lybook-db/aa/lily-0a4411fa.ly.  What's
in the file?  Does the version number say "2.13.7" ?

What happens if you copy the file to a new location, COMMENT OUT
THE STUFF ABOVE "start cut&paste section", and run lilypond on it
normally?  If this step fails, then it's a plain old "lilypond
crashes on this file" bug report.

(you might want to grab the just-released 2.13.7, since this
should be able to compile everything in the git tree at the
moment)

Cheers,
- Graham

I'm not certain I follow you, but I'll wait for the patch.

The number is updated here:
http://lilypond.org/web/

There are very good reasons why I didn't add an announcement to
the "news" section yet; see the lilypond-user mailist for details.

Interesting.  Could you do a "make doc-clean", then a "make
EXTERANL... doc", and remind me exactly which directory you're
building it in?


Also, if anybody else wouldn't mind building the docs with
EXTERNAL_BINARY, it would be nice to know if the general system is
broken, or just something on Harmath's machine.

I investigated in this. The file says
\version "2.13.4"
When trying to compile it, I got the following error:

Not unless you have a minimal example.  I also hope that you
noticed my warnings about COMMENTING OUT THE STUFF ABOVE THE "CUT
AND PASTE" SECTION.

If 2.13.7 really cannot compile a regression test, then it's a
serious bug.  Alternatively, what happens when you try to compile
that file as found in input/regression/ ?

Cheers,
- Graham

Of course. Though only the line

\include "lilypond-book-preamble.ly"

had to be commented out.

Hmm... There is the line

\sourcefilename "bar-chords-notation-for-guitar--with-text-spanner.ly"

in lily-0a4411fa.ly. But this file does not exist in input/regression...

Oh, I see now.  It's in Documentation/snippets/

well, I'm at a loss as to why it can't compile.  I guess you could
report it on bug-lilypond, and hopefully somebody who has OSX can
test it as well.

Cheers,

Reported!

In the meantime, I tried to build the docs in the Lilybuntu virtual  
machine. All kinds of builds work like a charm, including specifying  
external binary. Though building the docs takes several hours to run,  
but I presume, on a virtual machine, that's not too much.

Today, I updated to OS X 10.6.2 and wanted to see if it can build LilyPond or the docs. Unfortunately, already when running autogen.sh, I got the following error:

ERROR: Please install required programs:  libguile (libguile-dev, guile-devel or guile-dev package).

The relevant output lines are:

checking for guile-config... guile-config
checking guile-config version... 1.8.7
checking guile compile flags... -I/opt/local/include -I/opt/local/include -D_THREAD_SAFE
checking guile link flags... -I/opt/local/include -D_THREAD_SAFE  -L/opt/local/lib -lguile -lltdl -L/opt/local/lib -lgmp -lm -lltdl
checking libguile.h usability... yes
checking libguile.h presence... yes
checking for libguile.h... yes
checking for scm_boot_guile in -lguile... no
checking for scm_boot_guile... no
checking GUILE rational bugfix... ok

Guile 1.8.7 is installed via MacPorts. Of course /opt/local/bin is in the path. I thought of more solutions or workarounds:
1. install guile-dev via MacPorts - but there is no such package
2. make LilyPond see the libraries in /opt/local/lib, since libguile is in there - is it what configure needs?
Is one of them reasonable or executable somehow?

Thanks in advance,
Dénes Harmath

However, as these earlier messages show,

> checking for scm_boot_guile... no

something is wrong with scm_boot_guile detection.

The thing to do here would be to look at config.log, figure out
what is going wrong, device a fix, test it, and send us a patch.
However, considering you did not know yet about config.log,
this may be a long road for you ;-)  Consider that you may
have to read /a lot/ of documentation and gain some experience
to get past errors that are more sublte.

Greetings,
Jan.
