Ubuntu 16.04 still has guile-1.8 in its repositories, so on that system 
it should be smooth to get things to run.

What I did back then was go through all the dependencies I found in this 
script 
https://github.com/jan-warchol/cli-tools/blob/master/lilypond/grab-lily-sources.sh 
and installed them manually. Then adding the necessary paths and 
shortcuts to ~/.bashrc (basically the stuff listed here: 
https://github.com/jan-warchol/cli-tools/blob/master/lilypond/grab-lily-sources.sh#L178-L203). 
After that I could immediately use 
https://github.com/jan-warchol/cli-tools/blob/master/lilypond/build-lily.sh

I also was told then to use LilyDev, but as long as Guile 1.8 is 
available on the distro it should be OK to use a regular Linux installation.
