I have v2.0.0. From what you've said in response to my query, I gather that
v2.0.1 already has a lilypond-book latex package. If that's not so, do you
know where I can find it? Thanks!

I need some basic help will lilypond-latex installation.

I want to use Ubuntu exclusively to write a musicological book with
lilypond+LyX.

To get rid of some rubbish that was stalling my system, I reinstalled
Ubuntu
from zero; then I installed LyX and "A decent selection of the TeX Live
packages". I also have lilypond in my usr/bin.

In LyX, when I go to Document>Settings>Modules and try to insert the
lilypond-book module, I get a message saying:

"Package not available: The module lilypond requires a package that is
not
available in your LaTeX installation, or a converter that you have not
installed. (...) Missing prerequisites: lilypond-book->latex."

What do I have to install now? Where do I get it?
Which version of LyX do you have installed. I think you need a minimum
of v2.0. The latest stable version from ftp.lyx.org is 2.0.1 - see
ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/stable/2.0.x/. You will need to download the
source (lyx-2.0.1.tar.gz) and follow the instructions in the INSTALL
file to build and install it. It's not very difficult.

No, 2.0.0 ssupports lilypond-book. Just open your document, go to Documents / Settings / Modules, and add lilypond-book.
