Hello,

Thank you for your comments.

At least for now lilypond still requires the TeX Gyre fonts (from ghostscript)
and uses those as preferred fallback. Only if those aren't present (which can't
really happen if the package is installed properly) the system defaults for the
serif/sans serif/monospace families are used. My concern is mainly that as
general usage moves to newer lilypond versions, the results should match across
os boundaries.

Concerning the different font formats, the installed package adds up o ~17MB.
This includes all typefaces, not just those lilypond uses. To me this doesn't
look unreasonably huge, so unless someone else chimes in with some other
arguments I'll keep the proposed port as is.
