For starters, a whole lot of paths are wrong (they are missing the common/ subdir prefix). Hmm, maybe serious overhaul is an overstatement, but getting the right paths is a must, and made me doubt the overall quality of the file, perhaps indicative of neglect. > > >>> Where did you get the packaging from?

Our repository seems to have the SuperCollider-3.4-Source-With-Extras-linux.tar.gz file from sourceforge with md5sum 20631117a7e9fb1c862833ce424ce9f4. Should we be using the without extras variant? Or maybe even another tarball? -- Saludos, Felipe Sateler _______________________________________________ pkg-multimedia-maintainers mailing list pkg-multimedia-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-multimedia-maintainers
