Hi,

pd-zexy has alternative Build-Depends, however, they don’t work:

[…]
  pbuilder-satisfydepends-dummy : Depends: puredata-core which is a virtual 
package. or
                                           puredata (<  0.43) but it is not 
going to be installed.

hmm, any idea why "puredata-core" is named a "virtual package"?
it is as real as a package can get.

The following actions will resolve these dependencies:

       Install the following packages:
[…]
8)      puredata [0.41.4-1 (unstable)]
[…]
checking pd/m_pd.h usability... no
checking pd/m_pd.h presence... no
checking for pd/m_pd.h... no
configure: error: m_pd.h is desperately needed!
         install pd and/or use
         "--with-pd=</path/to/pd/>"
make: *** [debian/stamp-autotools] Error 1
dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules build-arch gave error exit status 2

ouch; you discovered an upstream bug.
i'll forward it, and could provide a patch that fixes the problem.

I think dropping the alternative on puredata is way to go.
I’ll just build its newer version, but due to the existence
of the alternative B-D, wanna-build considers pd-zexy to be
eligible for building.

ah btw, the B-D in question is really
 "puredata-dev | puredata (<< 0.43)"
rather than
 "puredata-core | puredata (<< 0.43)"
the latter is merely for runningthe test-suite.
