hi my csound5 compile was crunching away until it got here: frontends/CsoundVST/Soundfile.cpp:133: warning: unused variable `int status' scons: *** Source `interfaces/python_interface.i' not found, needed by target `interfaces/python_interface_wrap.c'. Stop. scons: building terminated because of errors. i looked for this file both on my disk and on google and found nothing. i think i got the most recent versions from cvs: js@fripp:/usr/local/src/csound5 528 $ cvs status INSTALL =================================================================== File: INSTALL Status: Up-to-date Working revision: 1.7 Repository revision: 1.7 /cvsroot/csound/csound5/INSTALL,v Sticky Tag: (none) Sticky Date: (none) Sticky Options: (none) i have saved the console text while it was compiling as well as the output of scons -h [but i am not including it in this note]. help! -- \js [ http://or8.net/~johns/ ]
