AFAIK I use pd-l2ork exclusively, not pd. I f you find it anywhere that I'm not using that please let me know so I can fix it.

I need to check whether pdsend/receive is indeed identical before making any calls on that matter. Even then if one has to uninstall pd-utils due to conflict with pd-L2ork what would that mean to the rest of the install as far as pd-extended is concerned? Would it still work, or is pd-utils a dependency (as far as I can tell it should be a dependency because otherwise pd wouldn't work without it)?

since i trust that you haven't done anything to pdsend/pdreceive, i
guess it is save to simple use the debian-package "puredata-utils"
instead of providing your own.
alternatively, you can make your package conflict with
"puredata-utils", in order to avoid the conflict.

the other thing that comes to my mind is obviously "pd" itself.
i guess you are using "pd-l2ork" as binary name, so this wouldn't be a
problem.
(but if indeed you do use "pd" as the binary name, i suggest to switch
to "pd-l2ork" instead and eventually provide an alternative diversion
from pd to pd-l2ork, using the "update-alternatives" mechanism)
