Hi. As some may know, I’ve been working on creating debian packages for
csound5. I have now built packages with the 5.08 beta. To use them, add the
following line to your /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb http://felipe.sateler.com/debian unstable main
deb-src http://felipe.sateler.com/debian unstable main

The first one will give you the binary packages (available for i386 and amd64)
and the second one the source package.

The archive is signed with the GPG key 54191ABE, available at
http://felipe.sateler.com/debian/public_key.asc
With fingerprint BB00 940D 4500 DA79 827B  6F30 9841 F4B0 5419 1ABE

Alternatively you can download each of the files by themselves at
http://felipe.sateler.com/debian/pool/main/c/csound/

Please test and comment. If they turn out to be OK, I will be asking for
inclusion in the main Debian archive.

This is a list of the current packages with a short description:

csladspa   – LADSPA plugin for csound
csound     – powerful and versatile sound synthesis software
csound-gui – GUI interfaces for csound
csound-utils – miscellaneous utilities for the csound system
libcsnd-java – Java bindings for the csound API
libcsound64-5.1 – main library for csound
libcsound64-dev – development files for libcsound
libcsoundac5.1 – the csound Algorithmic Composition library

Hi All,

This release contains a number of fixes and implementations of feature
requests, as well as new support for csLADSPA project settings (works

Many thanks to Michael Bechard for his code contributions as well as

feature requests.

Thanks and enjoy!
steven

Notes for 0.121.0<
[released 2008.02.12]

Michael Bechard—————————————————————–

blue

    [new] – added “clear” functionality to the BSB file selector widget via
            popup menu

    [new] – made channel level label an editable text field after
            double-clicking

    [updated] – Made Orchestra manager’s Instr ID column adjustable

Steven Yi———————————————————————–

blue

    [new] – Added support for manage csLADSPA settings: csLADSPA tab and editor
            added to Project Properties; if enabled, will add <csLADSPA> block
            to generated CSD.  Support was also added to “Import from CSD”
            feature to read in csLADSPA blocks found in CSD’s.

    [new] – SoundFont Viewer – Added right-click popup menu to file tree with
            option to “Copy Path”, copying the full path of the selected file
            in the file tree to the system clipboard

    [new] – for InfoDialog (used to show text such as when Generating Code to
            Screen), added a CaretPositionDisplay to bottom right that
shows the
            line number and caret position in that line

    [new] – LineObject, ZakLineObject, BSB LineObject – Added option for “Link
            First/Last” points to properties for Line, allowing to make first
            and last line points linked so that modifications to one will apply
            to the other; useful when using line objects for ftables for
            oscilators

    [updated] – Updated conf/opcodes.xml to latest opcodes from 5.08; also
            checked in a copy of the quickrefBlue.py file based on quickref.py
            in the csound manual src tree, used to generate the opcodes.xml
            file; also added ant create-opcodes-file target

    [fix] – LineObjectCanvas – prevent adding points outside the canvas area as
            well as fixed off-by-one error exception when inserting new points

    [fix] – Automatic ftable numbering used by objects like the LineObject now
            take into account any ftgen statements found in the global orc

    [fix] – blueX7 p3-resetting code restored (change was in 0.116.0) as
            original Pinkston code made DX7 emulation monophonic due to use of
            ihold opcode and current version of Csound does not seem to suffer
            from problems of resetting p3

documentation

    [new] – added information about csLADSPA settings to the section
for Project
            Properties
