= compile it from source as per the last link. IRCAM represents more the 
RedHat side of AGNULA (amongst many other things - I consider the Institute's 
foundation to be the marker point for 'modern' music as opposed to what 
should be considered 'historical'). I know that Patrice Tisserand and 
Francois Dechelle _are_ working on a Debian package, but they have a busy 
schedule and I'm impatient / interested enough to have a go at compiling it 
myself.

Good, not seen that.

Yup, this is the article that made me think about trying to do it from source. 
I've only ever done straightforward ./configure; make installs that don't 
involve dependencies. I wouldn't know where to start editing a makefile.

Well, I know I have most of the necessary reading matter on my hard drive, or 
is googleable, I may as well download the sources and see what gives. I 
expect I'll be posting some confused gcc output sometime soon ;-)

cheers
