I'm trying to compile grill/flext from the CVS sources. I've edited the config-pf-linux.txt to suit my system, changing PDPATH to be /home/ian/pd/src (I'm installing this as a regular user). I've compiled SndObj and edited the config so SNDOBJ points toward libsndobj.a in /usr/local/lib. However, when I execute sh build-pd-linux.sh I get a couple lines of compilation and then pages and pages of errors:

This goes on for several more pages until the last line of make.log is

make: *** [pd-linux/flbase.ro] Error 1

I'm using the devel_0_37 CVS branch of PD because I need jack support, is flext incompatible with devel_0_37? If it isn't, is there a way to reliably use jack with the Main .37 CVS?

I have gcc-3.3, gcc-2.95, and g++ 3.3 installed. I'm running kernel 2.6.6. The first line of output says that /home/ian/pd/src is included, which is where g_canvas.h is. I'm sure this is the resulf of my relative unfamiliarity with building from source, so thanks for bearing with me.

Thanks, Ian Smith-Heisters //
