I'm trying to compile sndfiler from svn but I get errors. I need it since I need to play ogg files to an icecast stream. most likely [readanysf~] (which is newer than [sndfiler~]) will do the job as well.
Yes, found this to in the end. Had some problems with the rdz PPA, but in the end I could install it, and it works!
Do you mind telling me what sort of troubles you had with the PPA? If there is anything to fix, I'd like to fix it [*].

[*] That said, it's too bad Ubuntu 12.04 (the first very long time release) still has a broken pd-readanysf package. Though the problem is actually fixed upstream, no-one ever pushed the fix through Debian/Ubuntu package management (it seems so overly tedious, but I really should dig into it once).
It should be possible to get a fixed one uploaded. Seems worthwhile since 12.04 is a long term support release. The first step is to file a bug report on it, and mention that they can just upload the newer version of the package. Then you have to find someone to nag to upload it.
