hello pd'people!


  i am trying to install Pd.extened-41.4 on a debian64 sid (unstable)
kernel 2.6.30-
 i have been looking around and the option of installing 32bit with
ia32lbs an ---force-architecture
 gave me libsasound2 problems..
    so i found a tutorial that explain how two build from source for
64bits..   i have managed to compile the extended libraries.. and run
make install && make packages... here everything gives the ok..  and
then after compiling for a while  it gives me an error saying that i
have a problem with DEBIAN/control file on line 9.. in "depends" field,
that i its missing a packages name or that garbage has been found..
  when checking this file.. in the place of dependes it says: xterm,
ttf-bitsream-vera

i dont really understand what the problem is.. can somebody helpme

If, like me, you get an error similar to this:

dpkg-deb: parse error, in file /home/dano/Desktop/pd-build/Pd-0.40.3-extended/packages/linux_make/build//DEBIAN/control near line 8 \package pd-extended: Depends field, syntax error after reference to package zlib1g make: *** deb Error 2

then there is a comma missing after a dependency. Open the Debian control file, look through the dependency list on line 8, and add the missing comma(s) after the referenced package in the error, in this case "zlib1g":
