hmm, so: for your people at UCSD you would like to have externals installed into ~/pd/extra and ~/pd-0.46-4/extra and ~/pd-0.22/extra depending on which version of Pd you are running. for yourself, you would like to have externals NOT be installed into ~/pd/extra.
since these two behaviours are contradictory and cannot be resolved automatically, the only option is to ask the user every single time they are going to install a library via deken, at the potential cost ofthem shouting "but i told you this directory already three times this morning" at their computers.
