the "Debian" section applies to all Debian-based distros.

i added the debian-multimedia stable repository to my sources.

#> aptitude install libgl-dev libglu-dev

is not available.

these are virtual packages provided by other packages. libgl-dev is provided (on my Debian lenny/sid) by any of the following: libgl1-mesa-dev, libgl1-mesa-swx11-dev, nvidia-glx-dev, nvidia-glx-legacy-96xx-dev, nvidia-glx-legacy-dev liblu-dev is provided by libglu1-mesa-dev chose the real package that fits you needs.

#> aptitude install libxxf86vm-dev ok #> aptitude install ftgl-dev ok #> aptitude install libtiff3g-dev

is not available

true. fortunately this is not a big problem as the dependency is optional. nevertheless i will change it to "libtiff-dev" (meta-package depending on libtff3g-dev or libtiff4-dev)

#> aptitude install libjpeg62-dev ok #> aptitude install libmagick++9-dev ok

#> aptitude install libmpeg3-dev libavifile-0.7-dev libquicktime-dev libdv4-dev ok, ok, ok, ok

trying to compile anyways:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -ldts collect2: ld gab 1 als Ende-Status zurÃŒck make: *** [Gem.pd_linux] Fehler 1

please file a bug-report in ubuntu, that pkg-config for libavifile should not report dependencies on dts if the libavifile-0.7-dev packages does not depend on libdts. something like: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=492040

in the meantime, please do as cyrille suggests and install libdts-dev you don't need to re-run configure, just linking should be fine.

thanks for your patience.
