OK I now understand the procedure to build latest from repo, but how do I test my own modifications to base pd? does this

$ cd packages/linux_make/
$ make install DESTDIR="/" prefix="/usr"

do the trick?

so to install to /opt would be:

$ make install DESTDIR="/" prefix="/opt"

right?

you can also try:
$ cd packages/linux_make/
$ make install DESTDIR="/" prefix="/usr"
if you want to install it directly into /usr
if you want to install into /usr/local
just leave the prefix="/usr"

You will still need a working internet connection,
you can try this, if you don't have one:
$ make install DESTDIR="/" prefix="/usr" DOC_TARGETS="media
messageoddness pd_fileformat pd-msg pddp tutorials"

(i don't know yet if it works, didn't test)

You also should have these installed:
dssi, gsl, imlib2, jack-audio-connection-kit, ladspa_sdk, lame, liblo,
libquicktime and speex at compile time

and also the devel packages, if your distro distinguishes
between normal and devel packages.

If you use slackware i can send you a SlackBuild
script. This will be released under www.slackbuilds.org
but i don't know when ;]
