Ooops, I should have used /usr/bin or /usr/bin/lilypond
From the README: "LilyPond installations are detected when the path 
points to either their root directories or to their binary executable."

$ sudo python install-lily-fonts -l -d /home/fede/.fonts -t 
/usr/bin/lilypond
[sudo] password di fede:
Script running locally.

Determined font directory:
 /home/fede/.fonts

Determined LilyPond font root directories:
- /usr/share/lilypond/current/fonts

Checking necessary actions ...

Fedora package installation is in /usr/share/lilypond/2.19.62

_get_lilypond_font_path in config.py uses 'current'. Any chance to 
adapt it for distro installations?
Well, I can rename it to "current" to make the script work...
