Hello. When trying to build lilypond, I had to install the
texlive-metapost package which the autogen.sh did not ask for. Is this
a flaw of the config process?
Well when I follow the NR to install the software to compile LP the
builddep-lilypond seems to contain this
NR? you mean CG
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.17/Documentation/contributor/requirements-for-compiling-lilypond
What is the builddep-lilypond and why do we link to ubuntu? Sorry, I
don't understand.

I am not sure what Linux Dist you are using but did you follow the NR or are
you getting the parts in a different way.
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.
I agree that this looks like something that the configure script should
have caught. Thanks for reporting it, we should open an issue for it.
