Thanks!

The doxygen error can be ignored.

Try verifying by running these two commands:

1) "which fluidsynth", should return /usr/local/bin/fluidsynth

2) "ldd /usr/local/bin/fluidsynth | grep fluid", should return 
"libfluidsynth.so.1 => /usr/local/lib/libfluidsynth.so.1" (followed by a 
hex number).

If the second one fails, i e, points to somewhere in "/usr/lib" instead 
of the newly installed file in "/usr/local/lib", try running "sudo 
ldconfig", then try again.

Let me know how this goes.
