I eventually succeded in installing 1.2.0 from sources on my debian
system.
Here is some information on the problems encountered and their solution:

1) configure complains that it cannot find guile-config.
   Cure: Install the libguile4-dev package.

2) Configure complains that guile should be newer than 1.3 even if
   libguile version is 1.3.15; this is just a warning but it is probably
   related to problem 3.

3) Link reports some undefined references:
   Cure:
   As suggested by Ian Stirling, after running configure, config.make has
   to be modified adding 
   -lguile -lqthreads to the definition of EXTRA_LIBES.

4) dvips and xdvi are not able to find the feta*.mf files:
   Cure:
   Insert
   MFINPUTS=:/usr/local/share/lilypond/mf
   export MFINPUTS
   in .profile.

5) LaTeX is not able to find the feta*.tfm files.
   Cure: Not yet solved really, a workaround is to copy the files needed
   to the working directory.

Hope this can be of some help to other Debian users, if you have a
suggestion to solve problem 5) please let me know.

Ciao,

Antonio Palama'
