I cannot seem to get these built.  A simple approach of cmake+make
failed as it could not find #include "csdl.h" which is a problem I
have often.  I do not install csound on my system as I change parts of
it frequently and as there are no users on this computer other than
myself it saves quoting the root password repeatedly.

Anyway I tried to overcome this by editing CMakeCache.txt to use the H

........

-- Could NOT find FLUIDSYNTH (missing: FLUIDSYNTH_LIBRARIES FLUIDSYNTH_INCLUDE_DIR)

-- Generating done

make: *** [Makefile:260: cmake_check_build_system] Error 1

I do not think I have any need for websockets but I am unsure about
this message.  It failed to find (for example) fluidsynth so it said it
would not build it.
  I have not looked at the py reference; again I have no interest in python

Plugin
s used to be buildable. Could we return to that state?

I tried it here and was able to build. Perhaps it is a problem to do with not installing Csound?

I have jhad problems before with installing csound; basically as I 
developed code it try to compile with the instllrf (and out of date) 
headers.  Took a long time to work that out.

I am happy yo ytell cmake where the headers are but I have not found where 
to kick the ode.
