creating links



Hi all.

My path is:

/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/games:/usr/games

whereis lilypond gives

lilypond: /usr/bin/lilypond /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lilypond /usr/local/bin/lilypond /usr/share/lilypond /usr/share/man/man1/lilypond.1.gz /usr/share/info/lilypond

What is wrong with following command which causes lilypond -v to execute the stable version of lilypond which is also installed?

sudo ln -s /usr/local/bin/lilypond ~/Lilypond/lilypond2.25.32/bin/lilypond /usr/local/bin/lilypond

The binary I want to execute is at /home/paul/Lilypond/lilypond-2.25.32/bin/lilypond

60 or 70% of the time that I upgrade I get this link correct. This is a time that it is failing and I haven't been to figure out the correct syntax.

TIA for any help,

Paul
