I’ve got to get this up and going. Any ideas on how to get it running?

#2

Hey guys, thanks a bunch. I’ve got it up and working.

#3

Also, while it’s not an error per se, you normally shouldn’t untar and compile stuff in /usr/lib/.
That’s what /usr/src is there for.

#4

Here’s the problem:

carter@ubuntu:/usr/lib/ladspa/ladspa-trigger$ make install
^^^^

You need to do

sudo make install

otherwise you get the permission problems that you have reported.

the fact that

carter@ubuntu:~$ sudo -l

tells you

User carter may run the following commands on this host:
(ALL) ALL

does not mean that you can do anything you like, it just means means that you can
use sudo to do anything you like.

Try running

man sudo

for a less cryptic explanation than this…

#5

I’ve gotten through the make but when I go to make install i’m getting this error.

  • I’m really new to linux so this could be something extremely simple.
    Thanks!

Either you don’t have read access to /usr/include or you don’t have glibc-dev installed

#7

sudo apt-get install build-essential
sudo apt-get build-dep ardour
