Re: [Csnd-dev] Error trying to build Csound7 for Daisy

Thanks Scott. Yes, I am running ancient Bison. I've installed a new one use
brew (I'm on MacOS), but it tells me the following:


  bison is keg-only, which means it was not symlinked into /opt/homebrew,
  because macOS already provides this software and installing another
version in
  parallel can cause all kinds of trouble.

  If you need to have bison first in your PATH, run:
    echo 'export PATH="/opt/homebrew/opt/bison/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc

  For compilers to find bison you may need to set:
    export LDFLAGS="-L/opt/homebrew/opt/bison/lib"

I don't really know cmake, wondering if anyone can tell me the incantations
to get cmake's generated make to use my newer Bison?

thanks!
