Greetings,

Are you trying to *build* LilyPond or to *install* it?

If all you want is to use LilyPond, we distribute ready-to-use
installers: http://lilypond.org/web/install
All you have to do is download the file (for instance our latest
"stable" version, 2.12.2), then open a terminal and just type the
required command.

If you're trying to *build* LilyPond for some reason, please read
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond-program/Compiling-from-source.html

Valentin
