[PD] installing pd-extended on debian (jessie)

2016-03-19 Thread Martin Schneider
Dear All,

TLDR;

I have trouble installing pd-extended from the debian repos.

Long Version:

I am trying to install the "pd-extended:i386" package on debian (jessie) on a 
64 bit machine.
It seems that the apt-release.conf file is wrong?

The file is located at: 
http://apt.puredata.info/releases/dists/jessie/apt-release.conf

Inside the file it says:
APT::FTPArchive::Release::Codename "wheezy”;

As a result my apt / aptitude complains that there’s a distribution conflict. 
The pd-exnrended:i386 has dependencies on the packages "python-support”, and 
“ttf-dejadvu”,
both of which don’t seem to be in the repos…

How should I proceed?

Cheers,
Martin

no not really.

that's because the pd-extended deb is *really* for build for wheezy.
(and only incidentally made available for newer distributions, like jessie)

- downgrade your system to Debian/wheezy?
- use one of the "nightly" builds for jessie [1] (which are *not* a
proper release, but are just a snapshot of the repository whenever the
build happened).
- don't use Pd-extended as it is unsupported and dead.


the only "fix" i could offer is to completely remove the
http://apt.puredata.info/releases/dists/jessie/ directory.
