Hey, Luckily, I found that building the latest version from source is relatively painless...errr, almost.
http://csound.sourceforge.net/ Two things to look out for; firstly, make sure you actually download the source file, not the installer under the 'linux' heading. The installer is for Suse linux and will give missing library errors on debian. Scroll right down for source code. Download, unpack, then... sudo apt-get install scons libsndfile1-dev python-dev (those last two may not be necessary, but I got them just in case) Second thing to look out for, it seems the latest version of the source code has its own bug! One of the python files is missing, but no need to worry. Just go into where you've unpacked, copy the 'custom.py' file and paste it back into the same directory, changing the name to 'custom.py.mkg' ( cp custom.py custom.py.mkg ). Then, in that same folder, just type ' scons '. If that doesn't work, type ' ./install.py ' (that'll be that second bug again). Sounds like a chore, I know, but all this shouldn't take more than ten minutes, and version 5.xx has tonnes of new opcodes that the 'official' Ubuntu repo version doesn't. Oh, and it actually works, which is a bonus in my book. Enjoy!
