Please read the installation instructions:

------------------------------------------
For running LilyPond successfully you have to help TeX and 
MetaFont find various files. The recommended way of doing 
so is adjusting the environment variables in the start-up 
scripts of your shell. An example is given here for the 
Bourne shell: 

export MFINPUTS="/usr/local/share/lilypond/mf:"
export TEXINPUTS="/usr/local/share/lilypond/tex:/usr/local/share/lilypond/ps:"


The empty path component represents TeX and MetaFont's default 
search paths. Scripts with the proper paths for the bourne and 
C-shell respectively are generated in buildscripts/out/lilypond-profile
and buildscripts/out/lilypond-login during compilation.
