while i appreciate the initiative to provide missing system libraries, i
think this is the wrong way to do it.
#1 a deken package should be self-contained.
if a given deken package lacks a library (e.g. libpthreadGCC3.dll) then
it should provide that library itself.
(alternatively, deken could be (theoretically; practically i see a
number of hurdles) enhanced to explicitely state such dependencies (so
installing "foo" would also install "pthreadGCC3")
#2 a deken package must be installable by deken. the requierement to
"then put all the dlls into pd/bin" contradicts this.
until deken can be told to install into pd/bin, i think that though
shall not abuse the deken package system for such things.
i'd therefore rather have the 'missingDLLs' package removed from
puredata.info.
we *should* come up with a proper solution for the problem though.
