I did this on my PowerBook G4 . I had some issues with build-dep - it doesn't like my deb-src in the sources file: apt-get build-dep libffi Reading package lists... Done E: You must put some 'deb-src' URIs in your sources.list I have: deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian unstable main deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian experimental main do we have our own for "ports" ? anyway, I solved dependencies manually. I build the package with "dpkg-buildpackage -b" It runs tests. === libffi Summary === # of expected passes 1462 # of unsupported tests 28 the package is created, unsigned of course. I installed it with "dpkg -i" because "apt-get install" told me it was a downgrade and was unsure it was picking up the correct package. Now libffi appears to work fine! Riccardo
