hello,
i usually use the old and deprecated build system located in svn/ external/build/linux a single "make" build a lot's of external. (lot's more that i ever used) it's deprecated but still work perfectly. i now realized that few useful exernals are no more part of this build system. pmpd is not there anymore by example.
i understand that this build system is not very used anymore, but why did someone removed file in the ../src folder?
if you don't like it : just leave it, but please don't destroy it. unless there is a better explanation? so please explain yourself.
btw, how to use the pd extented build system?
Cyrille
I removed pmpd from externals/build/src when I converted pmpd to use the Makefile/libdir template, which Pd-extended also uses. This template is not tied to Pd-extended at all, and is standalone. If you want to build pmpd, just:
cd externals/pmpd make
That seems like a much better option than the old system IMHO. Ideally, all libraries would use this template, it makes building and packaging much easier on all platforms.
