It seems like devs stabilizing 2.18.2 should have run into this. Anyway I can't reproduce it right now since I mostly run ~arch, but at some point I may try reproducing this in a chroot.
Same error here on my non-~arch system. I have texlive-metapost-2012 installed and no dev-tex/metapost. metapost dependencies in lilypond ebuild look strange: || ( ( >=dev-texlive/texlive-metapost-2013 >=dev-tex/metapost-1.803 ) <dev-texlive/texlive-metapost-2013 ) I guess it actually should be <dev-texlive/texlive-metapost-2012
I just created a clean chroot with the latest stable amd64 stage3 and failed to reproduce this so the deps appear correct for a clean, new system. Anyway, this should definitively go away once a newer texlive gets stabilized.

Now lilypond also wants =dev-tex/metapost-1.902 which did not get stabilized. See bug 558544#c5 (In reply to Alexis Ballier from comment #5) > lilypond deps are wrong; dev-tex/metapost wont be used unless user eselects > it; mpost command is provided by texlive-core...
Could a dev please check about https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=558544#c5
(In reply to charles17 from comment #7) > Could a dev please check about > https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=558544#c5 Charles, this version that you are dealing with is 2 years old. Upstream released an a version 2 weeks ago. Probably worth investigating with a newer version.

Created attachment 427192 [details] Lilypond tries to pull-in unstable dev-tex/metapost-1.902
TeX Live 2014 has MetaPost 1.902. So lilypond should not depend on dev-tex/metapost when dev-texlive/texlive-metapost-2014 is installed.

Okay. I have done some digging in the build system, both in version 2.18.2 and the live version. I have found the following results, which are the same regardless of whether we are talking about 2.18.2 or 9999. The build system checks for the required file mfpath.mp [1][2] using the program kpsewhich. mfpath.mp is included in dev-texlive/texlive-metapost, but in neither dev-tex/metapost nor app-text/texlive-core. Therefore the dependency on texlive-metapost cannot be dispensed with. Also there is a dependency missing on dev-libs/kpathsea since kpsewhích belongs to that package [6]. The build system checks for the program mpost, which is required [7][8]. This program is supplied by either dev-tex/metapost or app-text/texlive-core. The symlink /usr/bin/mpost is managed by eselect mpost. Which package that supplies us with mpost is not important. Thus, the build system should allow any of them to be used. I will correct the deps in the ebuilds and send a PR soon.

A pull request is filed at ${URL}. A month or so after merge I will request 2.18.2-r2 to be stabilized. When that is done and the problematic version is removed this will be closed.
