[PD] debian/ubuntu package for Pd-extended

Hey all,

I am here in Zaragoza, Spain at the gohan workshop. I am impressed
by how many people here are running Debian/Ubuntu. It was the most
popular OS at the workshop! This also made me realize what a mess
that Pd-extended installer was. So here is my first attempt to
rectify the situation, I made a .deb. Please test it out:

http://idmi.poly.edu/pdlab/Pd-0.39.2-extended-rc4/Pd-0.39.2-extended- rc4.deb

A couple notes:

• it installs into /usr/local so you can have it installed at the

same time as the "puredata" Debian package

• it should automatically install all dependencies except "liblame0"

since that is not included in normal Debian (AFAIK)

• it should install a GNOME/KDE menu item in "Sound & Video" with a

pretty icon, please tell me if that doesn't work

Anyone know how to handle file associations with GNOME? I would like
to add that.
