Hi all,

I was in need for a supercollider [1] debian package and since I could
not find one..
..I took Dan 'MCLD' Stowell's Ubuntu package [2], more specifically the
Natty-2 version [3] and helped myself.

After two small patches (a fix for wiimote + gcc4.6 [4], and override to
shlibdeps [5]) it compiles, installs and works on debian/wheezy+sid.

All the hard work is done already: debianization, separate -emacs -gedit
and -vim plugins, debian-readme's and whatnot. I don't know if Dan
(CCed) is the sole author of the packaging (it looks like Free Ekanayaka
and Paul Brossier had their fingers in there years ago) but it's a job
well done and pretty much lintian clean though there are some scattered
warnings.

It's be great to get supercollider into debian [again]!
Is anyone here interested and qualified to push this forward?!

Cheers!
robin
