Can anyone help out with the following Ardour2 build problem?
First the basic details:
Platform: Powerbook G4 running Ubuntu 6.06 LTS
Ardour package is: Ardour-2.0alpha2
All libraries are installed including development versions of those libraries.
No issues with finding any of the libraries (all good there)
Here is what the terminal is outputing, there appears to be two distinct errors that occur with the last one causing the build session to terminate:

scons: *** [libs/soundtouch/AAFilter.o] Error 2
scons: building terminated because of errors.
Strange that scons didn’t warn you about it, but you seem to be missing the compiler itself. You need to install gcc and g++ and probably a lot of -dev / -devel libraries to get it going.
Don’t worry though, those packages are easy to install. Just every time you get a warning about XX missing, try searching your distros package repositories for a relevant XX-dev or XX-devel package.
I do have gcc and the other development libraries installed and doing a ‘which gcc’ command in the terminal produces /usr/bin/gcc and that version of gcc is 4.0. This implies that the system is aware of gcc.
The first error:
TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +: ’NoneType’ and ’str’:
File “SConstruct”, line 553:
have_cxx = conf.TryAction (Action (env[’CXX’] + ’ –version’))
has been corrected by simply commenting out those lines (they are a simple check for the c compliler). When scons is run again I then get the second error:
scons: *** [libs/soundtouch/AAFilter.o] Error 2
scons: building terminated because of errors.
If this is indeed because the build process is not seeing gcc how do I get the system to see it??
Although I am running on a Powerbook G4, I have dual booted the unit (see initial post for full details) and I am currently trying to get Ardour2 to compile under Ubuntu Linux 6.06 LTS.
I did reply to your post (thankyou by the way). Unfortunately I must have done something wrong and the reply ended up being posted right underneath my original post.
‘which g++’ does not produce anything. So this means that g++ is not in the system. Am I wrong in thinking that g++ was automatically installed with gcc ??
Your comment about checking for g++ yeilded some positive results. When first checked the ‘which g++’ query did not return anything, a subsequent check of the /usr/bin/ directory shows that g+±4.0 is actually in the system. The problem turned out to be that there was no symbolic link pointing to the actual file. I created the link and reran scons, at this point the package is merrily chugging away in the build process. I’ll post back again when it’s finished and let everyone know how it went.
