Hello Sylvestre,

Sorry for the delay, but I remember that some build-dependencies can't be

* URL : https://github.com/kypeli/kQOAuth

Bug#702158: RFS: vmodsynth/1.0-4 [ITP]

2013-03-03 Thread Ho Wan Chan
I will implement those for 1.0-5. Sorry since I'm a new guy for Debian (not
for Ubuntu).

 That's because I don't know how to fix

 We need to since that it is written in C++ 11 (for specific reasons, see
the .pdf), which is starting to get supported in gcc 4.7

Bug#702149: ITP: vmodsynth -- a modular software synthesizer

2013-03-03 Thread Ho Wan Chan
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name: vmodsynth
Version: 1.0
Upstream Author: Rafal Cieślak 
* URL: https://launchpad.net/vmodsynth
* License: GPL v3
Programming Language: C++ 11
Description: vModSynth - a modular software synthesizer

vModSynth is not meant to be a useful and convenient synthesizer. It's
instead meant to resemble the look & feel of an analog modular software
synthesizer, featuring similar modules, allowing to connect them freely,
and control all knobs with an external MIDI device. This allows one to have
the fun of an analog synthesizer and easily design their synthesizers just
as if they would on a real kit.
