Compiling Lilypond on Termux
I successfully installed Lilypond music notation software using Termux on my Android (version 12) tablet, but I can't view the PDF after compiling the file.
Here's the error message I received (I highlighted the error message I'm trying to understand):
~ $ lilypond myfile.ly

Do you have any suggestions on how to fix this issue, or where can I seek help?
Thanks so much!
