And voila, you have your custom distro. For a different platform, you would do this:
ah, i think we do not agree on what a "custom distro" means. it seems like for you, a custom distro is a (possibly stripped) flavour of the full pd-extended distro. for me, a custom distro is (e.g.), a pd-application that needs several externals and comes with all these externals.
please let's not go into the "why don't you use pd-extended then" discussion again.
As for requiring the "packages" section, there is no reason why it is that why it is that way beside that is the way that it currently works. I think that all of this stuff probably should be included in pd/src/configure.in.
please never ever. put it into cvsroot/pure-data/configure.in, but leave out pd/src/ and the kernel-configuration.
