Hi,

pd-zexy has alternative Build-Depends, however, they don’t work:

[…]
 pbuilder-satisfydepends-dummy : Depends: puredata-core which is a virtual package. or
                                          puredata (< 0.43) but it is not going to be installed.
The following actions will resolve these dependencies:

      Install the following packages:
[…]
8)      puredata [0.41.4-1 (unstable)]
[…]
checking pd/m_pd.h usability... no
checking pd/m_pd.h presence... no
checking for pd/m_pd.h... no
configure: error: m_pd.h is desperately needed!
        install pd and/or use
        "--with-pd=</path/to/pd/>"
make: *** [debian/stamp-autotools] Error 1
dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules build-arch gave error exit status 2


I think dropping the alternative on puredata is way to go.
I’ll just build its newer version, but due to the existence
of the alternative B-D, wanna-build considers pd-zexy to be
eligible for building.

bye,

I want one of these. They cost 720 € though… good they don’t have the HD hole,
which indicates 3½″ floppies with double capacity… still. A tad too much, atm.
