Hi,
I try to use Lilypond under Lyx/linux (Debian) and wonder whether somebody
could share his experiences re download (debian package? compile?) with me.

If you're looking for advices on how to build from source, I usually do

1) remove the main distribution (debian) package,
2) install the packages needed for a build,
3) download the latest source code,
4) start building, and
5) optionally, install system-wide

For lilypond and lyx, that would be, from the command line:

1) sudo apt-get remove lilypond lyx

2) a) sudo apt-get build-dep lilypond lyx
   b) sudo apt-get install git subversion

3) a) svn co svn://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/trunk/ /home/username/lyx-devel
b) git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/lilypond.git /home/username/lilypond-devel

4) (in the appropriate directory)
  a) ./autogen.sh
  b) ./configure
  c) make

5) (optional)
  sudo make install
