Synaptic does that automatically because it has the repository with the links to fetch the packages. I'm not an experienced "installer" so probably someone can help you better. There must be a master package in synaptic with all the fonts and correct dependencies, the question is which one it is.

Now there are other dependencies; most of them probably from "normal" packages that I can easily install with Synaptic; the problem is that when I try to install the Pd Extended package, it will complain of only one dependency at a time and I will have to install each one manually.
I found the binary
package here:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/jaunty/i386/ttf-bitstream-vera/1.10-7
(for Jaunty) and installed it.
So now everything should be fine.
Isn't there a way to automatically install all the needed (and not yet installed) packages, just like Synaptic does??
thanks
