For the beginning don't care about externals, as you probably won't need them. When teaching Pd I always tell my students to use Millers version, because as soon as they realize that there might be an external that solves their problem, they go crazy and search for externals and try to compile them instead of thinking about how to solve their problem .. and fail to learn Pd and to get anything going.
So my advice: If you want to start with Pd, study it without externals, use Millers version, and give feedback about problems before trying to compile your own or searching for externals. Always prefer solutions without externals, because this shows up the weaknesses and makes it possible to fix them in Pd itself instead of using some external hacks.
Amen!
