There seems to be a bug in 2.11.65 when it comes to converting the DVI
output of lilypond-book (LaTeX source files) to pdf. I suspect that
something is wrong in the creation of the dvi file, because a regular
LaTeX file (i.e. a LaTeX file without any lilypond stuff in it) runs
successfully and converts from dvi to pdf perfectly.
When I couldn't make it work in 2.11.65 I reinstalled 2.11.63, the last
version I ran the files successfully with, and ran the files again
successfully. I reinstalled 2.11.65 and it failed again. I then
installed 2.11.64-1 and ran the files successfully again. Apparently
the problem comes between 2.11.64 and 2.11.65.
Would someone mind trying lilypond-book with a LaTeX file and converting
to pdf to confirm this?
Here are the commands I performed:
lilypond-book --output=out --pdf filename.lytex
cd out
latex filename.tex
dvipdf filename.dvi
My computer runs Ubuntu 8.04 on x86 processor.
My terminal output is attached from a successful run in 2.11.64
("success.txt") and from the failed run in 2.11.65 ("errors.txt")--see
the last 10-15 lines for the error messages. Although the successful
run shows some error messages at the end, everything compiled properly.
You can see that the "errors.txt" has very different messages at the
end. Oh yes, I've also attached a tar of the small test document I used
to generate the terminal output.
Thanks,

Quick follow-up to this. The installation of 2.11.65 that failed was
one that I built from source pulled from git today. Just to try one
more variable, I installed the pre-compiled binary of 2.11.65 and (of
course) it ran the files successfully. I suppose something didn't go
right when I compiled today. Funny because the installation I compiled
worked fine on regular lilypond files but it didn't work with lilypond-book.
So now I don't really know whether there's a problem or not. :( If
anyone feels like investigating this I'd be very curious to see how it goes.
Best,
Jon
