Hi there,
I'm just switching from Pd-extended 0.42.5 to 0.43.4 and a bunch of externals are missing.
how did you install Pd-extended 0.43.4 (where did you get it from; which *exact* package did you install?)

Got it working by now! Still need some help, though (see below)!
Here's how I installed it:
Downloaded "Pd-0.43.4-extended-ubuntu-precise-i386.deb" from http://apt.puredata.info/auto-build/latest/
got the dependencies, etc. first: apt-get build-dep puredata gem
pd-pdp
add-apt-repository "deb http://apt.puredata.info/releases lsb_release -c | awk '{print $2}' main"
apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-key 9f0fe587374bbe81 apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-key D63D3D09C39F5EEB apt-get update
installed compiled .deb package: dpkg -i Pd-0.43.4-extended-ubuntu-precise-i386.deb
to resolve dependencies: - apt-get -f install once more: dpkg -i Pd-0.43.4-extended-ubuntu-precise-i386.deb
After that some external libraries were not working correctly!
Then I removed the existing Pd-extended version and did a new installation with apt-get install pd-extended
Now all libraries were there (except for those that had been removed on purpose of course)!
Now I still have two problems left:
- font size
since the patch had been updated already from 0.40.3 I used to have to apply a font hack in /usr/lib/pd-extended/bin/pd.tk change line 136: tk skaling 1.3 (from originally 1)
This is not working anymore! Now all my canvas titles, numberbox names, etc. are very small.
Is there a way to do a tcl/tk scaling like in 0.42.5 which used tk 8.4 instead of the 8.5 version of 0.43.4 ?
I found some scaling in /usr/lib/pd-extended/tcl/pd-gui.tcl However, changing the scaling there from 1 to 1.3 has no effect.
- [hcs/sysgui]
It used to be possible to move, resize or iconify the pd-window with [hcs/sysgui] by using "." (="period") as the window name.
This is not working anymore either. Does anybody know the new window name of the pd console? Here's an example:
[wm iconify .( or [wm deiconify .( | | [hcs/sysgui] [hcs/sysgui]
Any help appreciated ...
Thanks! Ingo
