There was a long thread about a related issue:
http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/No-readline-in-scheme-sandbox-td195372i20.html
regrettable without real good sollution.
It looks like the wrapper-script which is created while installing
LilyPond does not find what's wished.

You could invoke lilypond without the wrapper, like
path/to/lilypond/usr/bin/lilypond my-file.ly

or

Find the relevant line in the wrapper. For me this line reads:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/home/harm/lilypond/usr/lib"
Comment it.

Both, works for me.
