Why does csound depend on this?  What does it do?
My Ubuntu build barfed as it could not find the library.  Seems to me
like an SConstruct failure

Contemporary notation software usually supports MusicXML as a file
format for the interchange of music notation. The MusicXML feature in
Csound enables scores notated in Siebelius, Finale, etc and exported
as MusicXML to be imported into Csound and rendered directly.

MusicXML is a more reliable representation of score data than MIDI
because it handles polyphony, unisons, and so on properly whereas MIDI
does not.

Mike

But if it is essential why continue after it dpes not exist?  Ot, it is is
not essential (Iand I do not think that it is) why is it being used?

Sconstruct should be checking.

Are you in charge of what is essential in csound?

Struggling on I discovered that the default system did not include g++ and
as a result
(1) The .cpp files were being compiled by th eprogram o
(2) The recognition of musicxml plain gave the wrong answer

I still do not understand why synaptic gives g=different results to
apt-get but I suspect there is a reason.

So I now have a sort of csound on the Ubuntu box.

This is what puts me off Ubuntu. You install the system, but it  
doesn't come with anything you normally use or neednot even a C  
compiler. You then have to go on a package hunt to see what you need  
that is not there and where to get it. Drives me insane. Considered  
moving to it from Fedora, but quickly lost the interest.

apt-get install build-essential will give you the basic stuff (C/C++
compilers, make and C/C++ library headers). For csound development,
you might want to do apt-get build-dep csound and automatically
install all stuff that is used to build the csound package.

Ah, this is what I like about Ubuntu! You can install a minimal system
from 1 CD and then get what you need as opposed to the 10 or so Fedora
DVDs you'll need...

Very useful information, that "apt-get install build-dep csound"!

But Fedora has a single live cd you can install from too! (I used this
when installing onto my netbook from a USB Keychain)

I see. All the same, in my experience I never had to configure
anything to get Ubuntu running with my hardware which is why I think
it's one of the most popular distros.
