- package the software Debian-style
I was hoping I could just copy someone's deb package and change a few variables.
I just saw there is a "debian/" folder in the pdogg directory. It looks like it is maintained already by Hans.
Could you just add this to the puredyne ppa list? Is that possible?
I think this is a perfect opportunity for an easy intro to launchpad. pd-pdogg is indeed ready to be uploaded, so you could upload it to pure dyne. At the bottom of this page are the steps that I use, the key is to change the distro and version in debian/changelog from 'unstable' to the ubuntu distro you are targeting.

hans,
when I do the first step in your howto, make dpkg-source, I get this:
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/august/externals/pdogg'
mv pdogg-0.26-svn pd-pdogg_0.26-svn
tar --exclude-vcs -czpf ../pd-pdogg_0.26-svn.orig.tar.gz
pd-pdogg_0.26-svn
rm -f -- pdogg-0.26-svn.tar.gz
rm -rf -- pdogg-0.26-svn pd-pdogg_0.26-svn
cd .. && dpkg-source -b pdogg
dpkg-source: error: can't build with source format '3.0 (quilt)': no
orig.tar file found
make: *** [dpkg-source] Error 255
