Hi,
I've been trying to build (over the last few weeks) the various externals pacakges from CVS and from the debian source to make .debs to give back to Geunter, but this has been largely unsuccessful. Is it normal that there are no packages in unstable like 'pd-flext-ext' and 'pd-osc' any more? I guess this is because they weren't working properly? Sorry for the confusion. I'm just trying to organise my thoughts here with regards to the debian/pd situation so I can help rectify it.
Best,
Chris. ------------------- chris@mccormick.cx http://mccormick.cx
if i m not mistaken pd-osc was pulled back as .deb because of some licensing issues with the OSC src files, which in meantime have been put straight again.

Yeah, the license issue is worked out. Also, I see no reason why the OSC objects shouldn't just be part of the pd-externals package. They are now compiled as individual objects and they are quite popular and useful, so they should fit well in pd-externals. Its just a matter of someone doing the work, I suppose...

I had to split the packages, because it did not make sense to distribute all of the externals together. they have different build systems, different release cycles and different licenses. this made it very time consuming to make updates. I am currently repackaging them one by one. Changes are not in CVS, I should delete the old debian dir there, as it is not functional anymore.
Help would be nice, especially with testing and bug reporting. (I do not have the time to test the packages completely, so I just do basic functionality tests)
Building and maintaining packages would be great too. Please contact me if you are planning to do so.

Chris.
