I have all those, but the installer still complains that alsa is

Any linux system used for audio has alsa installed, probably what you
need
is the alsa-dev package which has the alsa headers needed to compile
software which can use alsa.
Thanks again for replying!
The actual error message is
configure: error: Package requirements (alsa >= 1.0.18) were not met:
No package 'alsa' found
The alsa-base version on my system seems to be 1.0.25.
Searching for alsa-dev in synaptic doesn't return anything. I have
alsa-base and alsa-tools installed, and can choose to install
alsa-oss, alsa-source and several versions of alsa-player - none of
which seems to fit 'alsa headers needed to compile software'.
There is libzita-alsa-pcmi-dev but, well...
The error message suggests that I 'Consider adjusting the
PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a
non-standard prefix'
I don't understand this message, which was also displayed when missing
c++ and x11. An advice I found was to do
~ export PATH="/usr/bin:$PATH
Could that lead to alsa not being found?
All the best,
Al F
