the only reasoning behind the .deb is to get the dependencies right.
apart from that, i agree to frank.

one hack to solve this would be to distribute pd-extended as .tgz and
additionally provide a "pd-extended-deps" package (which conforms to the
debian standards)

or make the pd-extended package be standard-compliant, but install to
/usr/lib/pd-extended/ rather than /usr/lib/pd
