- 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.

when I try to add the new package "pd-pdogg" in launchpad, it tells me there are similar projects such as pd-extended. Are you packaging pdogg already as a ppa?
IS there a pd-extended ppa? Is it usable? I can't find any real info about it on launchpad.
If it is, can we merge all the purdata-related ppa's into one?
If pd-pdogg is part of pd-extended, should I continue with the packaging?
