Hello Russell and Micheal,

I'd like to thank both of you again. Also wanted to document the successful build
I did this morning from a fresh cvs checkout.

my custom.py exerpt:

if sys.platform[:5] == 'linux':
    platform = 'linux'
    customCPPPATH.append('/usr/local/include/python2.3')
    customLIBPATH.append('/usr/local/lib/python2.3/config')
    customCPPPATH.append('/usr/local/src/Archive/Csound/fltk-1.1.6')
    customLIBPATH.append('/usr/local/src/Archive/Csound/fltk-1.1.6/lib')

scons buildPDClass=1 buildCsoundVST=1
scons buildPDClass=1 buildCsoundVST=1 install

~/.bashrc excerpt:

export OPCODEDIR=/usr/local/lib/csound/opcodes
export CSSTRNGS=/usr/local/share/csound
export CS_LANG=us
export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:"/usr/local/lib":$OPCODEDIR
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/local/lib"


I needed the custom.py edited like this for the build to work. I need these lines in my
~/.bashrc in order to be able to run CsoundVST. This is what worked for me on Gentoo
Linux.


Thank You for helping me getting this running. I am extremely excited to play with it today!
