Oopsie, somehow managed to push the send button.. Anyways, the
filetriggers only looks .omf files from /usr/share/omf/ and now after
checking I see in lilypond they're hiding in somewhere else and out of
filetriggers reach. I think the fix would be moving them to a correct
place to be "available" for filetriggers (and add back reqs I
removed).
