What is the builddep-lilypond and why do we link to ubuntu? Sorry, I

I tried not to install any package that weren't required and therefore
I installed only what config took as enough to start compiling. After
issuing 'make' it did fail for a missing package not listed explicitly
by autogen.sh

Yes, CG does lists metapost. But this peckage was not auto-installed
as a dependency from other previous packages.
