Did this, thanks, and now have the following problems.

Problem 1:

address@hidden:~/lilypond-git$ sh autogen.sh --noconfigure
processing .
Running autoconf ...
autogen.sh: 17: autogen.sh: autoconf: not found

Problem 2: running configure:

ERROR: Please install required programs: /usr/local/bin/fontforge >= 
20110222 (installed: )

See INSTALL.txt for more information on how to build LilyPond
address@hidden:~/lilypond-git/build$ fontforge --version
bash: /usr/local/bin/fontforge: cannot execute binary file: Exec format 
error
address@hidden:~/lilypond-git/build$ sudo apt-get install fontforge

fontforge is already the newest version.
