The problem sounds familiar. Check the access rights of the .../share/lilypond/... directories.
My guess is that only root has access to some of these directory levels.

Please excuse me... now I have a strange problem: If I run lilypond as
root, it works... but if I do it as a regular user, I get this:
-------------------------
GNU LilyPond 2.4.2
Processing `prueba.ly'
Analizando...
Interpreting music... error: can't find `feta20.afm'
Music font has not been installed properly. Aborting

This is the font environment setting question again.

May be caused by a shell-environment which is not properly
initialized. You must read all the shell-login scripts (and
understand and debug them :-(!))

or

  keep running as root

or, better, use

  buildscripts/out/lilypond-profile

which should be manually added or sourced from your /etc/profile
or /etc/bashprofile (what name is used by bash?) Some setups use

  . /etc/lilypond/lilypond-profile

but names are distribution specific, so it could be

  . /etc/profiles.d/lilypond


(I avoid these problems by having a /.lilypond script at hand at every time which I source manually :)


SOURCE: source a script means to run the script by using the dot-command (or "source"-command in bash)
