LIBSNDFILE PRECOMPILED FOR IRIX
            ===============================

Here is Erik de Castro Lopo's libsndfile library precompiled for IRIX 6.5.
You can download the binary IRIX files:

            lib/libsndfile.a        (statically linked library)
            lib/libsndfile.la
            lib/libsndfile.so       (just a link to libsndfile.so.2.11)
            lib/libsndfile.so.2     (just a link to libsndfile.so.2.11)
            lib/libsndfile.so.2.11  (dynamically linked library (shared object))

            bin/sndfile-convert     (Example programs using libsndfile)
            bin/sndfile-info
            bin/sndfile-play

and copy them to your /usr/local/lib and /usr/local/bin directories on IRIX.
File libsndfile-1.0.11.tar.gz contains the original sources
(and some more files to install!).

Below is just a small compilation-report.
GCC version 3.3 was used with -O2 optimization level.
Running IRIX 6.5.12 on SGI Indy with R5000 processor.
First add or create environment variable:

    setenv PKG_CONFIG_PATH /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig
                       
Download libsndfile-1.0.11.tar.gz from http://www.mega-nerd.com/libsndfile/.

    gunzip libsndfile-1.0.11.tar.gz
    tar xf libsndfile-1.0.11.tar
    cd libsndfile-1.0.11

With GCC version 3.3 on IRIX 6.5.12, pipe option of GCC doesn't work (yet)
so it is important to 

    ./configure --disable-gcc-pipe
    gmake
    
As root, one may now install under the default prefix, which is /usr/local.
    
    gmake install

Besides copying the 8 abovementioned files this also installs manuals (under 
/usr/local/man/man1) and headerfile sndfile.h (under /usr/local/include)!
