Installing Ableton Link opcodes on linux

Dependencies

dnf/apt-get install boost-devel asio-devel

Clone the Link library https://github.com/Ableton/link

git clone https://github.com/Ableton/link.git

And make sure you have csound cloned on your computer:

git clone https://github.com/csound/csound.git

Make a new directory to compile csound into and run cmake (more information on installing Csound is found in INSTALLING.md). Here we are concerned with changeing the cmake configuration. cd into the compilation directorty with the terminal and edit this command to fit your computer paths

cmake /home/hlolli/csound/csound/ -DBUILD_ABLETON_LINK_OPCODES=true -DABLETON_LINK_HOME=/home/hlolli/csound/link

Here you'll need to replace the location of your csound sources (that cloned git dir) and link sources.
