Thanks Thomas,

Hi Alexandre,

I modified this file to reflect my system and then typed sudo bash build.sh pd gcc install and it created the config file:


alexandre-mathesons-power-mac-g5:~/desktop/flext alex$ sudo bash build.sh pd gcc install



Now I'm stuck I don't think I need sndobj and stk support I just want to compile fluid~ cause I got a whole whack of sounfonts but now when I try to install I get this message:



alexandre-mathesons-power-mac-g5:~/desktop/flext alex$ sudo bash build.sh pd gcc install

make[1]: *** [_install_] Error 71
make: *** [install-release-single] Error 2

So what am I doing wrong? I have gotten 4 errors in total, error 1 twice and error 2 and error 71.



the point is that after editing config-mac-pd-gcc.txt you'll have to run "build.sh pd gcc" again, NOT "build.sh pd gcc install".
I'll have to include this into the docs, it seems to be a very common source of problems - "build install" doesn NOT automatically build the flext package, it just wants to install it, which is not possible if it hasn't been built before.

best greetings,
