Hello,

I just wanted to say that I have been using OS X 10.5 on my computer for a
few weeks now and last week I went ahead and compiled Csound 5.09 from
scratch because I needed the Python interface to try Chuckk's new tkinter
front end. I was also thinking ahead to making packages for 10.5 in the
future.

Basically, I started with a nearly "clean" Leopard system -- I had installed
Victor's 5.09 PPC package but uninstalled it when I found that it would not
work for Python (unsurprisingly). I downloaded the latest source code for
nearly all of Csound's dependencies and many optional components, built each
of them, and finally built Csound. There were a few snags along the way but
I documented the entire experience so that it is hopefully repeatable. I
was unable to get the new linear algebra opcodes to compile. And I did not
try to build Jack support or DSSI opcodes. Otherwise, I think that I did
succeed in building everything else. Installing everything into the correct
locations was another matter as I did not see an OS X script in CVS for
this, so I hacked the install.py script as a partial solution.

Victor, you mentioned that you have more files/scripts that you use for
packaging Csound releases. Could you share those with me please?

I'll post more details about the problems I had while building later.

Thanks.
