Hey list,

I'm pretty new to compilation of things not made by me, so bear with me if this is moronic. I've downloaded the zexy and pdp sources from the CVS, and am having problems comiling them on Debian Sarge kernel 2.6.3.

When I go to the zexy directory (/usr/lib/pd/externs/zexy/src/), read the instructions, alter the makefile to suit my directories, and type make, it says "make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop." So I give it a target with "make makefile.linux" and I get "make: Nothing to be done for makefile.linux'." So I type "make clean" and I get "make: *** No rule to make targetclean'. Stop." I'm guessing this is a pretty simple error of ignorance to the workings of make.

So. PDP.

I type "./configure --prefix=/usr/lib" it works. I type "make" and I get:

pdp_imageproc_common.c: In function _sign': pdp_imageproc_common.c:292: warning: use of cast expressions as lvalues is deprecated make[2]: *** [pdp_imageproc_common.o] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory/usr/lib/pd/externs/pdp/system/image' make[1]: *** [common] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/lib/pd/externs/pdp/system' make: *** [pdp_all] Error 2

...after a bunch of the usual make output. I tried it as root and as a regular user. I have libgsl0 and libgsl0-dev and libquicktime1 and libpng installed from apt-get.

So, yeah. Any help would be very much appreciated.
