You are exactly to the point when you refer to the initialization files, which (at least in the version you use) are really only necessary when you want to run lilypond-book. I don't know Gentoo, but in most other Linux distibutions, the precompiled LilyPond packages install a file /etc/profile.d/lilypond.sh which means that it automatically is sourced as soon as you open a new shell (if you use bash).
If you compiled LilyPond yourself, please make sure that you install this file using cp buildscripts/out/lilypond-profile /etc/profile.d/lilypond.sh
Don't try to set TEXMF yourself, it's much better to use the solution already available in the lilypond profile file.

Hello,
I've installed version 2.0.3 (I could not get de most recent one to work
at all). This version succeeds in building ps and pdf partition.. however, I have
a problem with the lilypond-book option. When I use the lilypond
command, it seems to work nicely (as you can see from output 1)
However, when I try to compile the output with latex, it does not find any of the lilponds defs (see output 2) and when giving the path to the defs, it crashes further on the fonts...
It seems that latex does not know where to look. What should I do.
Manually trying to set TEXMF does not do it: when I do the following:
export TEXMF="{/usr/share/lilypond/2.0.3,"`kpsexpand \\$TEXMF`"}"
I then have following value for TEXMF: bash-2.05b$ echo $TEXMF
{/usr/share/lilypond/2.0.3,
{/home/tazz/texmf,!!/usr/local/share/texmf,!!/usr/share/texmf}}
First, lilypond-book refuses to work, second, if I use previous output
from lilypond book, and compile it with latex, I get a latex error
(output 3)
I know that there are "initialisation files" however, for the 2.0.3 version, it works without them (until the latex stuff) and with the other version, I never found out how to get them working. (I am running linux workstation -> gentoo distribution)
thanks for any help. Anne
