I am attempting to install the latest fluidsynth from source. (Went to Github main page, clicked "Clone or download.") My machine is running debian 9.1 x86-64, with Cinnamon v3.2.7.
Per the instructions, I made a "build" folder, and ran "cmake ..", "make install", and "sudo make check" (which all passed), and all seems well:

When I run "fluidsynth -v", I get the following output:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
fluidsynth: error while loading shared libraries: libfluidsynth.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Any other suggestions?
