well, i think the template library Makefile fails on the the kfreebsd and hurd platforms (at least according to the build logs). i understand that these platforms are not the main targets, but since we are on debian, there is no good reason to not include them. a common makefile snippet could help a lot (also on debian-derivatives that have x86 derived architectures (e.g. i686), that could benefit from enabling optimzations globally (think SIMD)) <sidenote> the above looks a bit ironic to me... within the pd-community i guess that i was (and am) one of the stronger advocates of self-contained build-systems (there has been loads of discussion on whether it is better to use a single Makefile for all (or most) libraries or whether each library should have there own cloned makefile. the "library template Makefile" is basically the outcome of the latter, and allows each library to build without having to download the entire repository. however, i think that those problems mainly arose because there is no way to define build-dependency in a cross-platform way for ordinary Pd-packages. since now we are in the good position that we are talking about debian, we actually have the possibility to use build-dependencies and i don't see a reason to not do that. </sidenote> >For me the problem would be then learning cdbs for special >> cases.

I'd call it something like >> standard-pd-library.mk well, one practical problem would obviously be, that there currently is no "puredata-dev" package yet, and it is unlikely to come before the upstream release of Pd-0.43 (which was due in august, but was delayed since then). would it make sense to create a separate package (e.g. "puredata-debian-dev") for the sole purpose of centralizing the makefile snippets? this package could then include cdbs, dh,... so people could have their pick. fgmasdr IOhannes
