please attach /var/tmp/portage/lillypond-2.2.1/work/lilypond-2.2.1/config.log
Pretty clear what goes wrong. Dependencies must be upgraded in lilypond-2.2.1.ebuild: mftrace must be 1.0.27 There is an ebuild for 1.0.31 in portage or bugzilla Please retry if mftrace has been upgraded. I had no problems with mftrace 1.0.31 and guile 1.6.4
After an update of mftrace to 1.0.31, i got rid of the first warning. But I still get the final error message: ERROR: Please install required programs: echo no guile-config >= 1.6 (installed: )

Thanks for pointing me to the needed information.
