hi james,
me also trying to get legasynth working for longer now, but this thread
moved me to try one more time and see:
http://home.jps.net/~musound/LegaSynth-0.4.1gcc33.tar.gz
here you get the version which is patched to compile with gcc-3.3 and
that works here.
all i did was to adjust that /usr/bin/cpp, gcc and g++ are showing to
the versions 3.3 and than running configure enabling jack - thats all.
OK I get this error on configure:
checking for libsigc++ - version >= 1.0.1... 1.0.4
checking if libsigc++ sane... no
configure: error: Cant find libsigc++!
Any ideas?
James
