i ran ./configure --prefix=/usr; the files were then installed into the
directory /usr/share/lilypond -- which is where my previous version of
lilypond is/was. ly2dvi broke off with the same error.

i first moved the 1.5 version to /usr/share/lilypond-1.5.58, renamed the
binaries and then installed version 1.4.13 to /usr/share/lilypond. this
worked without any problems, and i could generate the sheet of music
that i needed - and the documentation using the make -C
Documentation/user out/lilypond.dvi command.

these variables are at the moment undefined.

address@hidden lilypond-1.5.58]$ LILYPONDPREFIX=/usr/share/lilypond-1.5.58 
address@hidden lilypond-1.5.58]$ LILYINCLUDE=$LILYPONDPREFIX/ly
