Thanks for the further explanation; I understand the situation now.

I see.  This means that lilypond-data requires tetex-bin; that's a
real bug which I'll fix on the next upload.

Ok, so if you want to uninstall lilypond-data, you'll need to install
tetex-bin first; there should have been a dependency of lilypond-data
on tetex-bin.  Then it would have refused to let you delete tetex-bin
until after you removed lilypond-data.
