I've downloaded, and run ./configure, make and make install and that
all went fine.

However the INSTALL file states

--snip--
* texinfo.tex and the other *.tex files are not installed by `make
  install'.  This is because there is no reliable way to know where to
  install them.  Instead, you have to run an additional make command
  after the normal make install:
    make TEXMF=/your/texmf install-tex
  texinfo.tex is installed in ${TEXMF}/tex/texinfo/texinfo.tex, etc.
--snip--

I am using LilyDev but is my 'texmf' the 'tex' dir in the top level of
the LilyPond source code dir?
