Public bug reported:

sudo apt-get install ladspa-foo-plugins
No plugins are installed, only some text documents in 
/usr/share/doc/ladspa-foo-plugins.

I also found the same deb package somewhere else, and it was the same
size as mentioned in the Ubuntu software centre (only 3.1 kB!). It only
contained a couple of text files, nothing more. I expected a file called
foo-plugins.so to appear in /urs/lib/ladspa after installation.

I also found a rpm somewhere. It was 30 kB. Tried to convert it to a deb
with alien, but there were a lot of errors. Maybe I did something wrong,
I don't know. Anyway, the rpm contained a lot more files than the deb,
so I suspect that the faulty debs are rpm→deb conversions that went
wrong somehow.

The ladspa-foo-plugins doesn't seem to be maintained any more, so maybe
that package should just be removed from the software centre?

A PPA can be found here:

I can install from this PPA, but some of the plugins doesn't work well.
Fortunately the one I needed works perfectly…

Ubuntu 12.04
