Im trying to compile ardour with vst and lv2 support.I have compiled lsv2core and slv2 and it installed it to /usr/local/include..when I compile Ardour with

Code:

scons vst=1 lv2=1

It say's

Code:

Checking for slv2... (cached) no
LV2 support is not enabled (SLV2 not found or older than 0.6.0)

How do i get it to see the /usr/local/include path??How would i pass on the path to scons..??

I never saw something like your quoted lines.

( scons VST=1 LV2=1 ... is the syntax : upper case )

vstsdk2.3.zip is from
http://ygrabit.steinberg.de/~ygrabit...s%20SDK%202.3/

1) lv2core_1.orig.tar.gz > lv2core-1/ > result :
/usr/local/lib/lv2/lv2core.lv2/*.h + /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/lv2core.pc

( 1a) build jack-audio-connection-kit-0.109.2/ > --prefix=/usr )
( 1a : only on Debian Etch. Lenny already has version 0.109.2 )

1b) slv2-0.6.2.tar.bz2 > slv2-0.6.2/ ( depends liblrdf0-dev )
> > result : /usr/local/include/slv2/*.h + /usr/local/lib/libslv2.so.9.1.1 ..
+ /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/slv2.pc + /usr/local/bin/lv2*

2) ardour-2.7.1 : cp vstsdk2.3.zip /ardour-2.7.1/libs/fst/
scons VST=1 LV2=1
( May be the options are not needed after editing 'SConstruct'
'0' to '1' for VST, LV2, FREESOUND, FREEDESKTOP ? )

Good luck !

It worked its way out..Not sure how..I shut pc down and came back to it next day and tried to build again..started with scons -c to clean it..and noticed it found slv2..built fine from there..i can use Kjaerhus classic plugins in Ardour now..I do get errors when starting from commandline..
