hi all -

how can i tell a linux system (ubuntu 10.10) to use the csound version 
in /usr/local/bin instead of the one in /usr/bin?

background: for a sound installation, i found on a machine a csound 
version (5.17) which was installed from the repository. the osc opcodes 
were missing, so i had to compile another csound version (5.19). this 
went without problems, and when i started qutecsound (0.6.1), it used 
the version which i compiled myself without asking anything.
but after restarting the computer, qutecsound again used the old 
(repository) version, and i don't know how i can pervent this.

thanks for any help -

	joachim

et PATH to look at local first -- normal setting

thanks for the quick reply. the problem, as i see it now more precisely: 
in the terminal the csound version in /usr/local/bin is used, and that 
is also what PATH suggests (looks for /usr/local/bin first, and then for 
/usr/bin). but qutecsound nevertheless uses the version in /usr/bin, and 
i didn't get it not to do so.

root of the problem is actually that the repository version comes 
without the OSC opcodes. hopefully this can be changed in future, or 
already has perhaps.

Hi joachim,

Is the repository version really without OSC opcodes?
Is that simply because your ubuntu server lacks liblo (OSC library) or not?
If yes, try
sudo apt-get install liblo7
(liblo7 might be another name depending on the ubuntu version)
i hope it helps.

Another possible way is to execute qutecsound at command line like this:

env  LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib/ PATH=/usr/local/bin/  /usr/bin/qutecsound

Possibly qutecsound will seek for the manually installed csound if you use this command.
(assuming that libcsound64.so is under /usr/local/lib/)
but i am not so sure it works..
