Hi,

As Jean suggests, use apt-get if you are allowed to, you'll need to be
root.  If you have to install the package without privilege, then
~/bin seems pretty normal.  Many users will have a ~/bin directory
with it entered on their $PATH where they can drop odd scripts - so it
seems pretty reasonable for the lilypond executable to be put there.

HTH,
Martin
