Hey,
thanks for the info,
I downloaded the .deb and when i wanted to install it i got this:

Preparing to replace lilypond 1.4.12-1 (using
lilypond_1.4.2-0potato1_i386.deb) ...
/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/preinst: /usr/bin/kpsewhich: No such file or directory
dpkg: error processing lilypond_1.4.2-0potato1_i386.deb (--install):
 subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 127
/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/postrm: /usr/bin/kpsewhich: No such file or directory
dpkg: error while cleaning up:
 subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 127
Errors were encountered while processing:
 lilypond_1.4.2-0potato1_i386.deb

where do i get /usr/bin/kpsewhich:

i tried to look on apt-get but i got this:

Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
E: The package lilypond needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive
for it.

i'm totally clueless again.
