With autofetching, I though of pd instead of saying "couldn't create foo" would see if foo can be downloaded (and built?, and installed) from the cvs. Don't know if this could work even reasonably well though.
ah, I understand. In the first place this would mean a change in pd's code, something like a message ; pd loadfailed <externalname> that gets issued by the loader, then it would be possible to implement, but surely only for linux.
This is a nice idea and somehow it brings up the question of namespaces again. I can think of external names, "foo" is in fact a good example, that might be used in several places. We should of course avoid such name clashes, and maybe a mechanism developed for pure-data.sf.net can be a testbed for namespaces. But I have no idea, how such an architecture is best defined...
