I would definitely recommend you to install the latest stable version, version 2.4.x, of LilyPond instead of the development version you have now.
I've never user Gentoo, but on most other Linux distributions, the LilyPond installation installs a file in /etc/profile.d/ that sets some environment variables that are needed for LilyPond to find font files and some other files. This file isn't sourced until you start a new shell (or maybe you even have to logout and login again), so if you use a shell that was open before the installation, LilyPond will not work.

I just installed lilypond 2.5.2 on my computer. I run linux Gentoo. I installed it using the gentoo portage. I also have tetex : 2.0.2-r1 installed.
Now, when I try to get a very simple test file compiled with lilypond, it crashes with the message: Interpreting music... error: cannot find `feta20.afm' Music font has not been installed properly.Aborting
I have been seeking the previous threads on this topic. It seems to be a path problem. However, when trying the different advices I could find, nothing worked. If I manually set the paths to all font directory with the -I option, it still crashes not finding fonts with kpathsea... so I suppose I need to set the link with Texmf right.. only problem I have no idea how to do this, I am not such an expert in TeX etc.. just know what is needed to use it ;-)
I am running out of ideas now so I call for help.
The verbose output is the following:
