Okay, that's right, GNUmakefile.in does not contain any variables that will be 
replaced, so it should work.

The autogen.sh script runs pkg-config on the various library names. However, 
pkg-config is not installed, either. The problem is that the string returned 
from the pkg-config call is stored into e.g. FREETYPE2_CFLAGS, 
PANGO_FT2_CFLAGS, etc. and then used in various calls


address@hidden:~/lilypond/lilypond$ grep -e ERROR config.make
FREETYPE2_CFLAGS = ERROR: pkg-config not found --cflags freetype2 >= 2.1.10
PANGO_FT2_CFLAGS = ERROR: pkg-config not found --cflags pangoft2 >= 1.6.0
FONTCONFIG_LIBS = ERROR: pkg-config not found --libs fontconfig >= 2.2.0
FREETYPE2_LIBS = ERROR: pkg-config not found --libs freetype2 >= 2.1.10
PANGO_FT2_LIBS = ERROR: pkg-config not found --libs pangoft2 >= 1.6.0

If pkg-config is installed, it returns the appropriate flags and pathes, but in 
this case, things are simply terribly broken, since the build requirements are 
not available.

Apparently, he needs pkg-config installed...

Cheers,
