In *nix, the versioned SONAME is used to be able to co-install different versions of the library concurrently. Csound does use this concept in it's library. However, by default plugins aren't versioned, but are tied to the library. I suggest changing the default installation directory for plugins from PREFIX/lib/csound/plugins(64) to PREFIX/lib/csound/plugins(64)-SOVERSION (currently 5.1). The attached patch does this. Are there any objections to applying it? It only makes a difference in linux. Saludos, Felipe Sateler
