How come? This used to be true a very long time ago, but there
are requirements to have a TeX installation to be able to run
LilyPond. See http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.10/Documentation/topdocs/INSTALL
(for version 2.10) or
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.11/Documentation/user/lilypond-program/Requirements#Requirements
(for version 2.11 and the coming version 2.12) for information
on the relevant running requirements.
