Description Bruno Vernay 2021-06-15 09:09:02 UTC
Description of problem:

When installing plugins in Fedora, they go to /usr/lib64/vst and  /usr/lib64/vst3 ... (same for other formats)

But by default Ardour is not configured to look into these directories.
User might think that the plugins does not work, until he/she manually add the directories to Ardour configuration.

How reproducible:  Always

Actual results: Plugins are not available by default, requiring explicit configuration change


Expected results: Plugins should be available without requiring manual configuration.


It is a similar issue as in Carla https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1971859
