Hi James,

I already had package.txt but the path in gnumake.mak was incorrect
so I changed it to reflect where it is on my computer but now I get
this from the console:

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

Your combination of platform, system and compiler is not supported yet. Required files: build/config-mac.def and build/gnumake-mac-gcc.inc

make: *** [build/gnumake-mac-gcc.inc] Error 1

I have these two files but it's not finding them for some reason. I
don't know what I have to configure cause I'm completely new to
compiling.

Seasons greetings,

I'm trying to build flext for os x but when I run build.sh in the
terminal i get this message:

...this is telling you what's wrong: there should be a package.txt
in the flext/ directory, and if not, then you need to update your
cvs checkout...you may also want to cd into the flext directory...

The history of every major galactic civilization tends to pass
through three distinct and recognizable phases, those of Survival,
Inquiry and Sophistication, otherwise known as the How, Why and Where
Phases. For instance, the first phase can be characterized by the question
'How can we eat?', the second by the question 'Why do we eat?' and
the third by the question 'Where shall we have lunch?' -Douglas Adams

Sorry to still be bugging you guys with this but I pretty sure I'm
doing something wrong. I cd into the flext directory and typed bash
build.sh pd gcc and it created the config-mac-pd-gcc.txt file in
buildsys:

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

A default system configuration file has been created. Please edit ./buildsys/config-mac-pd-gcc.txt to match your platform, then start again.

make: *** [buildsys/config-mac-pd-gcc.txt] Error 1

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

We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things:

 #1) Respect the privacy of others.
 #2) Think before you type.
 #3) With great power comes great responsibility.

A default package configuration file has been created. Please edit config.txt, then start again.

make: *** [config.txt] Error 1

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

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

Thanks Thomas,

I think that worked, I owe you a beer :-)

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, Thomas
