The whole point of using `dpkg-buildpackage` is that it'll create a .deb package to install: $ dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us $ sudo dpkg -i ../so-synth-lv2_1_i386.deb And this will install thing using your system's package manager. Uninstall with `dpkg -r so-synth-lv2` or `apt-get remove so-synth-lv2` or use one of the graphical software package managers supplied with your system. ..of course, this assumes that your on a debian-like OS. If you're on an RPM-style OS (Fedora, SuSe)... then making the .deb package was a waste of time. :-/ -gabriel _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
