Forget the `buildLoris' option. You compile loris from the source with CPPFLAGS="-I/path/to/csound/headers" ./configure ... make && make install if you use the double float csound version CPPFLAGS="-I/path/to/csound/headers -DUSE_DOUBLE" ./configure ... ... I create a symbolic link on gnu/linux cd $OPCODEDIR64 # or OPCODEDIR for float ln -s /usr/lib64/libloris.so tito
