I don't see this on my just installed openSUSE Leap 15.1 system, which
uses ld 2.31.1 and g++ 7.4.0 and which normally is quite similar to
Tumbleweed.

Hmm.  LilyPond doesn't explicitly test for glib; it relies on
PANGO_FT2_LIBS, which should always add those two libraries for
building the `lilypond' binary.  For example, I see the following in
my `config.log' file:

  configure:9658: checking PANGO_FT2_LIBS
  configure:9661: result: -L/usr/local/lib64 -lpangoft2-1.0 \
                          -lpango-1.0 -lgobject-2.0 -lglib-2.0 \
                          -lfontconfig -lfreetype

Why is this not sufficient on your system?
