Automake is a tool for automatically generating Makefile.in's from files calledMakefile.am'.

The goal of Automake is to remove the burden of Makefile maintenance from the back of the individual GNU maintainer (and put it on the back of the Automake maintainer).

The Makefile.am' is basically a series ofmake' macro definitions (with rules being thrown in occasionally). The generated `Makefile.in's are compliant with the GNU Makefile standards.

Automake 1.15 fails to work in a number of situations that Automake 1.4, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, 1.10, 1.11 and 1.14 did, so previous versions are available as separate packages.

If you do not plan to build Debian packages, you don't need this package. Starting with dpkg (>= 1.14.18) this package is required for building Debian packages.

This package contains an informational list of packages which are considered essential for building Debian packages. This package also depends on the packages on that list, to make it easy to have the build-essential packages installed.

If you have this package installed, you only need to install whatever a package specifies as its build-time dependencies to build the package. Conversely, if you are determining what your package needs to build-depend on, you can always leave out the packages this package depends on.

This package is NOT the definition of what packages are build-essential; the real definition is in the Debian Policy Manual. This package contains merely an informational list, which is all most people need. However, if this package and the manual disagree, the manual is correct.

CMake is used to control the software compilation process using simple platform and compiler independent configuration files. CMake generates native makefiles and workspaces that can be used in the compiler environment of your choice. CMake is quite sophisticated: it is possible to support complex environments requiring system configuration, pre-processor generation, code generation, and template instantiation.

CMake was developed by Kitware as part of the NLM Insight Segmentation and Registration Toolkit project. The ASCI VIEWS project also provided support in the context of their parallel computation environment. Other sponsors include the Insight, VTK, and VXL open source software communities.

CMake is used to control the software compilation process using simple platform and compiler independent configuration files. CMake generates native makefiles and workspaces that can be used in the compiler environment of your choice.

This package provides the CMake curses interface. Project configuration settings may be specified interactively through this GUI. Brief instructions are provided at the bottom of the terminal when the program is running. The main executable file for this GUI is "ccmake".

CVS is a version control system, which allows you to keep access to old versions of files (usually source code), keep a log of who, when, and why changes occurred, etc., like RCS or SCCS. It handles multiple developers, multiple directories, triggers to enable/log/control various operations, and can work over a wide area network. The texinfo manual provides further information on more tasks that it can perform.

There are some tasks that are not covered by CVS. They can be done in conjunction with CVS but will tend to require some script-writing and software other than CVS. These tasks are bug-tracking, build management (that is, make and make-like tools), and automated testing. However, CVS makes these tasks easier.

This package contains a CVS binary which can act as both client and server, although there is no CVS dæmon; to access remote repositories, please use :extssh: not :pserver: any more.

DSSI is an API for audio plugins, with particular application for software synthesis plugins with native user interfaces.

DSSI is an open specification developed for use in Linux audio applications, although it is portable to other platforms. It may be thought of as LADSPA-for-instruments, or something comparable to VSTi.

This package contains the header file required for compiling hosts and plugins.

This package provides Fluid, an interactive GUI designer for FLTK, allowing graphical development of FLTK-based user interfaces. It natively works with (textual) .fl files, but also includes rough support for reading .fd files produced by fdesign (in libforms-bin).

The Fast Light Toolkit (FLTK) is a cross-platform graphical user interface toolkit originally based on libForms.

Git is popular version control system designed to handle very large projects with speed and efficiency; it is used for many high profile open source projects, most notably the Linux kernel.

Git falls in the category of distributed source code management tools. Every Git working directory is a full-fledged repository with full revision tracking capabilities, not dependent on network access or a central server.

This is a transitional dummy package. The 'git-core' package has been renamed to 'git', which has been installed automatically. This git-core package is now obsolete, and can safely be removed from the system if no other package depends on it.

This package contains files required for developing software that makes use of libasound2, the ALSA library.

ALSA is the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture.

The FFTW library computes Fast Fourier Transforms (FFT) in one or more dimensions. It is extremely fast. This package contains the statically linked library, header files and test programs.

This package contains the header files and static libraries. For documentation, see libfftw3-doc.

JACK is a low-latency sound server, allowing multiple applications to connect to one audio device, and to share audio between themselves.

This package contains files needed for the development of JACK applications and an API reference.

LIRC stands for 'Linux Infra-red Remote Control'.

This package contains the static library and headers for the LIRC client library.

LibLO is a lightweight, easy to use implementation of the OSC (Open Sound Control) protocol (see http://www.cnmat.berkeley.edu/OpenSoundControl/ for details).

Open Sound Control (OSC) is a protocol for communication among computers, sound synthesizers, and other multimedia devices that is optimized for modern networking technology. OSC features:

• Open-ended, dynamic, URL-style symbolic naming scheme
• Symbolic and high-resolution numeric argument data
• Pattern matching language to specify multiple recipients of a single message
• High resolution time tags
• "Bundles" of messages whose effects must occur simultaneously
• Query system to dynamically find out the capabilities of an OSC server and get documentation

This package contains headers, documentation and static libraries.

Liblrdf can read RDF/XML and N3 files and export N3 files. It also has a light taxonomic inference capablility.

It can also be used for general RDF manipulation.

This package holds static libraries and headers needed by developers who wish to use liblrdf0 in their programs.

Mini-XML is a small XML parsing library that you can use to read XML and XML-like data files in your application without requiring large non-standard libraries.

Mini-XML provides the following functionality:

• Reading of UTF-8 and UTF-16 and writing of UTF-8 encoded XML files and strings.
• Data is stored in a linked-list tree structure, preserving the XML data hierarchy.
• Supports arbitrary element names, attributes, and attribute values with no preset limits, just available memory.
• Supports integer, real, opaque ("cdata"), and text data types in "leaf" nodes.
• Functions for creating, indexing, and managing trees of data.

• "Find" and "walk" functions for easily locating and navigating trees of data.

  This package contains the Mini-XML development files.

Qt is a cross-platform C++ application framework. Qt's primary feature is its rich set of widgets that provide standard GUI functionality.

This package contains the header development files used for building Qt 4 applications.

libsamplerate (aka Secret Rabbit Code) is a library for audio rate conversion.

libsamplerate currently provides three different sample rate conversion algorithms; zero order hold, linear interpolation and FIR filter interpolation (using filters derived from the mathematical SINC function). The first two algorithms (zero order hold and linear) are included for completeness and are not recommended for any application where high quality sample rate conversion is required. For the FIR/Sinc algorithm, three converters are provided; SRC_SINC_FASTEST, SRC_SINC_MEDIUM_QUALITY and SRC_SINC_BEST_QUALITY to allow a trade off between conversion speed and conversion quality.

libsamplerate is capable of downsampling to 1/256 of the original sample rate and upsampling to 256 times the original sample rate. It is also capable of time varying conversions for vary speed effects and synchronising of two unlocked sample rates.

This package contains the library header files and API documentation.

libsndfile is a library of C routines for reading and writing files containing sampled audio data.

This is the development version of libsndfile. You will need this only if you intend to compile programs that use this library.

Libxml++ is a C++ wrapper for the libxml2 XML parser library (otherwise known as the GNOME XML library). It has SAX and DOM-like APIs, but does not attempt to conform exactly to the DOM specification because they are not aimed at C++. Its API is much simpler than the underlying libxml C API.

This package contains development files.

Apache Subversion, also known as svn, is a centralised version control system. Version control systems allow many individuals (who may be distributed geographically) to collaborate on a set of files (source code, websites, etc). Subversion began with a CVS paradigm and supports all the major features of CVS, but has evolved to support many features that CVS users often wish they had.

This package includes the Subversion client (svn), repository administration tools (svnadmin, svnlook) and a network server (svnserve).

xutils-dev provides a set of utility programs shipped with the X Window System that do not require the X libraries; many of these programs are useful even on a system that does not have any X clients or X servers installed.

The programs in this package include:

• imake, a C preprocessor interface to the make utility;
• lndir, a tool that creates a shadow directory of symbolic links to another directory tree;
• makedepend, a tool to create dependencies in makefiles;
• makeg, a tool for making debuggable executables.

This package also contains xorg-macros.m4, a set of macros used in configure scripts of X.Org packages.

zlib is a library implementing the deflate compression method found in gzip and PKZIP. This package includes the development support files.
