Installing them in /usr/local makes it possible to be totally confused: if the distro installs fluidsynth (or any other program for that matter), it will install it under /usr/. If you already have that program (or install on top of the distro package) in /usr/local you will be royally confused in which program is being ran. > when i try to run qsynth, i am getting: > > [sergio@mediaserver ~]$ qsynth > qsynth: error while loading shared libraries: libfluidsynth.so.1: cannot > open shared object file: No such file or directory /etc/ld.so.conf should include /usr/local/lib. If it doesn't add it there and run ldconfig (both operations need to be done as root). But is stress, at least i wouldn't go this route. It's much simpler to keep only one installation of each software. -- Sampo Savolainen <v2@xxxxxx>
