buildDeb.py won't work. I got this error message:

File "buildDeb.py", line 340 subprocess.check_call(["chmod", "755", target]) ^ SyntaxError: default 'except:' must be last

The general deb package has largely been replaced with the PPA build routine. I am not surprised that it no longer works.

If at all possible, can you live with the PPA routine instead? It should be possible to use to produce functional debs for debian too, although I haven't tested this. You might run into the need to set up a separate pgp secret in order to sign the debs.

I hate to say this but the PPA manger system is crap. Because it's realy slow and makehuman is very large file set, So therefore it is realy painfull for download from PPA. I mean it comes handy that you can build makehuman for systemwide.But luckily I managed to build makehuman from source. Besides I don't hate debian or makehuman but the PPA system is realy screwed up.
