If you get stuff like:
   stepmake/stepmake/generic-targets.make:163: out/dummy.dep: Unknown file or 
directory
that's okay.

The error is just before Make says `Leaving directory' (I faked an error:)

   kpath.cc:9: #error 
   make[1]: *** [out/kpath.o] Error 1
   make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/usr/src/fred/src/lilypond-1.3.140/lily'
   make: *** [all] Error 2

see what goes wrong or send that to the list.

See INSTALL.txt.  Maybe you can match the SuSE names with the Red Hat
packages mentioned, so we can include them.  In any case, you need
tetex, te_kpath, te_mpost
