New file mostly builds right. There are a few packaging issues:

1) SourceRename: should use "fluidsynth-%v.tar.gz", not %N. If you use 
%N, the it renames to fluidsynth1-2.1.1.tar.gz, which does not match the 
internal folder. 'fluidsynth-2.1.1.tar.gz' is enough to tie the renamed 
tarball to a specific project.

2) The build searches for readline but fails to detect it with readline6 
installed. If you update the BuildDepends and Depends to use readline7, 
then it is detected and used.

3) cmake find and uses pulseaudio and sdl2 if found. You'll have to 
either explicitly disable their use, or explicitly add them to the 
relevant Depends and BuildDepends fields across the SplitOffs.

The 1 refers to the library install_name (libfluidsynth.1.dylib, taken 
from otool -L libfluidsynth.1.dylib) and is used to allow different 
incompatible versions of the same package to exist at the same time. 
Version 2.1.1 of fluidsynth increased to library install_name to 
libfluidsynth.2.dylib, so the package will need to be renamed 
fluidsynth2, and fluidsynth2-dev package added to the Conflicts: and 
Replaces: fields.

In the original fluidsynth package, there must have been a conflict with 
the later fluidsynth1 package, so fluidsynth1 got hidden inside 
%p/lib/%N (see CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX) so that the two packages could 
co-exist. fluidsynth1 and what will be fluidsynth2 can probably coexist, 
so it might not be necessary to keep fluidsynth2 'hidden' anymore.
