I got it! Not sure how exactly, but I’ll share what I tried at least.
So:
qmake -qt5 && makeper the readme, was failing in the make part with the
g++: error: unrecognized command line option '-mfpath=387'error I mentioned above.
I tried going into the Makefile and just taking out all occurrences of
-mfpmath=387(there were 7). I then tried ‘make’ again, and actually got further into compiling, but still ended up with an error. This time it was the
Chorus.h: No such file or directoryerror (
mentioned in this post). I tried the solution listed there, which was to uncomment the line
DEFINES += USE_LOCAL_STKin the polyphone.pro file. I ran ‘make’ again, and again got a bit further in compiling, but hit another error. This time it was
fatal error: jack.h: No such file or directoryBasically my experience was going the same as in the thread mentioned above. I then went to try Knut Petersen’s solution from that thread, to manually add
-isystem /usr/include/stk -isystem /usr/include/jackadd the end of INCPATH in Makefile – except that when I got in there, I saw that both paths were already listed. I double checked that these folders were in fact at usr/include/ in my system, and they are. So I went a little further into polyphone.pro, to the section starting with
unix:!macx {and where it says
INCLUDEPATH += $$PREFIX/include/jackI changed it to
INCLUDEPATH += /usr/include/jackI then ran make again, and it worked. Interestingly, because at some point I guess I ran qmake again, it looks like the Makefile once again had the
-mfpmath=387flags in it, and yet I hit no errors for that.
Also, the executable ended up in the sources/bin/ folder, not in a directory called ‘RELEASE’ as per the readme file.

TL;DR
If trying to compile for Raspberry Pi, in the polyphone.pro file, uncomment
DEFINES += USE_LOCAL_STKThen go down to the section starting with
unix:!macx {and make sure the INCLUDEPATH += path is set to where your jack folder is. By default it is pointing to
$$PREFIX/include/jack(which is /usr/local/include/jack), but try
INCLUDEPATH += /usr/include/jack.
If you still get the -mfpmath error, you can try taking mentions of it out of the Makefile; I may or may not have done that at the time that I successfully built it.
I should mention that I haven't really tested out the program other than launching it, but it looks correct. Also, sorry for the long post, wanted to be thorough. I am very much looking forward to using this software, thanks Davy!
