Obtain version 2.14.2-4 from Wheezy at https://www.debian.org/distrib/packages Alternatively, see if you have it in /var/cache/apt/archives. Then dpkg -i lilypond-doc_2.14.2-4_all.deb Now uninstall it. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
