the LADSPA SDK (header file and some docs), and some existing LADSPA
plugins (esp. the Computer Music Toolkit): www.ladspa.org
this is a common plugin format used by many apps; the app packages
would probably Suggest the plugins and the apps' -devel packages
would Require the SDK.
(I'm not a Debian developer, but I always keep in touch with the
guys who package my stuff. eg. the next release of sweep
(sweep.sourceforge.net; and is in unstable) has LADSPA support [now in
CVS] but it'll be difficult to write that into the package rules if
ladspa itself is unpackaged).
