The latest version of guile (1.6.8) breaks Lilypond (v. 2.9.3, which, admittedly, is an unstable version, so the problem may lie there, but nobody else at the lilypond forums have responded to my error message).

For what it's worth, here's the output from a test-run:

GNU LilyPond 2.9.3
Processing `testfile.ly'
Parsing...
/usr/share/lilypond/2.9.3/ly/music-functions-init.ly:102:1: error: GUILE

A downgrade to guile 1.6.7-2 solved the problem.
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Fixed
Additional comments about closing:  Guile updated to 1.8.1 in testing, will move to current as soon as gnome 2.16 goes to extra.

Update: Apparently, the problem is the 1.6.8 version of Guile. Since the newer 1.8 version is also out, it might be an idea to update the arch package too...?

Guile 1.8 is completely incompatible with 1.6.x, it breaks half of the packages in arch that depend on it.

OK, I didn't know that. Well, as long as it works with the old version...
