hello list,

trying to build Csound from sources (just cloned,  
the build fails.  
As always in cmake directory:  
cmake ../  
Corrected the cache to replace /usr/bin/bison with /opt/local/bin/bison.

Arch -x86\_64 make  
And after failure:  
arch -arm64 make.  
here are the results:

Hello,

They have been installed from macports.  
and no i have no cmakeCustom anywhere.  
Bests

> do you have a Cmake.custom that's forcing linux packages to be included, I'm JACK, PulseAudio and PipeWire in the logs, given this is osx, I don't know how it got included.
