[Csnd] Installing from source on linux?

Subject[Csnd] Installing from source on linux?
Hey folks,

I've built csound recently on a different box, but I can't figure
out some of the steps this time.  I'm on Kubuntu, and I can apt-get
csound, but it gives me 5.10, which has to be before John put in
the killer new score sorter.  I need to sort millions of lines of
score, and the old version is impractical to use for that purpose.

I chose my options and ran my scons command.  Along the way,
compilation would stop from time to time, but I was always
able to apt-get something that sounded like the item in the
complaint and things continued eventually down to the end.
So, I tried using the new csound binary to run my usual orc
and sco.  The sort time went from over an hour to a minute
or so, so I knew I had the right binary.  When synthesis started
however, I got an immediate failure on the OPCODEDIR64 thing.

I had exported OCODEDIR64 to be /usr/local/csound (which I made)
during the build, and since it was there, I tried python install.py
which made impressive claims about installing things into /usr/local/bin
but nothing actually went in there.

So, to make a huge question short:  after I build, how do I install?
The INSTALL file points me to the html manual page which really says
nothing about what to do after the scons command completes.

Thanks,

Tobiah

Toby, I think you are better served by building from source from the
debian package, which builds 5.12, if it contains the features you
need. Here are the steps:

sudo apt-get install devscripts
dget http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/c/csound/csound_5.12.1~dfsg-6.dsc
dpkg-source -x csound_5.12.1*
cd csound-*
dpkg-checkbuilddeps
sudo apt-get install the missing dependencies
dpkg-buildpackage -j2
sudo debi

Hi Tobiah,

running.

ATM i run Kubuntu 10.04 and still use this blog and make small updates from
time to time, maybe it can help you out?
