I don't know about the Vine Linux distribution, but at least for 
Debian, there are two versions of the ghostcript package, one called
gs-afpl and one called gs-gpl. The difference between the two is that
the AFPL version is released under a different license than the GPL
version and that the AFPL contains more recent features than the GPL
version.

On the other hand, the LilyPond package (assuming that you downloaded
it from www.lilypond.org) contains a version of ghostscript that is 
sufficiently new. Since I don't use the package myself, I don't know 
the details on how you can use that version.
