The ebuild file specifically lists README.txt as a required documentation item, but it is no longer present in the source. (Upstream github no longer has it.) This causes an installation failure. I was able to resolve it by removing README.txt from the DOCS variable in the ebuild file in my personal local portage repo. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge lilypond 2. 3. Actual Results: Lilypond was not installed. Expected Results: Successful install of lilypond.
