(N.B.: I'm running 2.3.10 now.)

OK, there's a file /sw/etc/profile.d/lilypond.csh, and I added a line 
to my .cshrc (I
use tcsh, if it matters) sourcing this file.  However, lilypond still 
gives me this:

The font file is (still) present where it should be.  Upon further
examination, TEXMF still doesn't contain a reference to /sw/share/
lilypond/2.3.10, as it should.  I tried putting a "source /sw/etc/
profile.d/lilypond.csh" line in both my .login and .cshrc (and even both
at the same time), but the directory was not added; after running that
command manually, the directory was added, and now I have a *brand new*,
never-before-seen error :-)

I made sure that my version of the ec-fonts-mftraced fink package is
up-to-date; I even rebuilt it, just to be sure.  The error persisted.  
So
I ran a "find" command, and found ecrm10.pfa in 
/sw/etc/texmf.local/fonts/
type1/public/ec-fonts-mftraced/.  I added "/sw/etc/texmf.local" to the
front of my $TEXMF, ran lilypond-- and got the same old error about
feta20.afm!  Does anyone have any ideas on this increasingly bizarre 
problem?
