Count me as one who says that ligatures are absolutely essential. (I couldn't say whether it's a bug in LilyPond or not, but I couldn't work without them.) I've had this problem on OS X (as it then was). I have both the official LilyPond binary installed in /Applications and a homebrew version (can't remember whether bottled or compiled) installed in /usr/local and one supports ligatures and one does not. (I'm away from home at the moment and don't have access to that computer, so I can't check which is which.) Where did you obtain the LilyPond install from -- was it from apt package or from the official distribution at lilypond.org?
