That thread was about problems in "Woody" wich is the unstable
release and might explain the problems you experienced when 
trying to install the unstable Lilypond 1.4.12 package.

However, it doesn't say anyting about your problems as long 
as you stick to potato. Have you really verified that the 
tetex-* packages you have installed (or half installed) have 
the version numbers I specify below and don't belong to woody?
