Please give a precise log file. The location of FreeType header files has changed in version 2.5.1 and again in 2.6. However, if you use either the `freetype-config' script or the `freetype2.pc' file for pkg-config tool to specify the header include directory, together with proper header macros like FT_FREETYPE_H in the source code, nothing should change for compilation. Which version of lilypond are you going to compile? You should *always* mention this! Have you tried the latest development version?
