Hi John, first try pddir flag to set the pd path. It could works. But if it doesn't, as for me, you can try to use pd-vanila (for [pd~]) in conjunction with pd-extended libraries/externals (the extra dir). After a night of pd Chat and testing (different machines, different platforms) was the only way to get it working on linux. Seems to remember pd~ works correctly on MacOS X. I know it's not elegant but it's worked for me. I'm curious to know if someone get it working. husk
since /usr/lib/bin/pd.tk didn't exist I tried ln -s /usr/lib/pd-extended/bin/pd.tk /usr/lib/bin/pd.tk
still no go. I had also been getting other variations of file not found for watchdog and pd-gui but symbolic links appeared to fix those: ln -s /usr/lib/pd-extended/bin/pd-watchdog /usr/lib/bin/. ln -s /usr/lib/pd-extended/bin/pd-gui /usr/lib/bin/pd-gui
pd 0.42.5-extended downloaded as a binary from the pd site, running on ubuntu Maverick
workaround?
