Thanks IOhannes for your explanations. So, I will leave with both paths thus this warning.
By the way my Pd 0.54-1 is not a one complied by my self, it could be by you which is a great thing for always getting the latest version of Pd thru this PPA on launchpad.net:
- Name: puredata / Version: 0.54.1+ds-2~ubuntu22.04~ppa1 :-)
hmm, well. this would be perfect (as it is the "Debian packages" I am talking about; they are just built for different Ubuntu versions).
this leaves me a bit confused, as in this case you should *not* manually add '/usr/lib/pd/extra' nor '/usr/lib/puredata/extra' to your search path preferences, as both these paths are searched for automatically (and then no error will be printed)
Yes in an ideal world it should be the case but here it's not working and this was the case since day one I have installed Pd on my Linux Mint 21, first the default Pd package (from the Package Manager) and then the PPA updates.
Now if I remove these two paths in such case Pd has no access at all to the objects into them and I'm getting when trying to use them (some examples): iemmatrix ... couldn't create sigmund~ ... couldn't create bonk~ ... couldn't create choice ... couldn't create hilbert~ ... couldn't create complex-mod~ ... couldn't create loop~ ... couldn't create lrshift~ ... couldn't create pd~ ... couldn't create rev1~ ... couldn't create rev2~ ... couldn't create rev3~ ... couldn't create stdout ... couldn't create bob~ ... couldn't create fiddle~ ... couldn't create pique ... couldn't create warning -- 'template' (pd-help-intro.pd) is obsolete; replace with 'struct'
Note: Still with these 2 paths removed, when using the 'Navigateur d'aide' (the Help navigator from Alexandre's Else) it can still see all the help objects into the '/usr/lib/pd/extra' and '/usr/lib/puredata/extra' folders but when double clicking on any of them they can't be created (for the objects belonging to these 2 paths), and I'm getting the above error messages too. See attached screen capture. For the Objects list in the screen capture mentioned to be in 'pd/extra' in fact they are in 'puredata/extra' on my system.
(that is, unless you somehow add "-nostdpath" to your startup flags, but i can hardly believe that you would do such a thing)
No such path added to my startup flags, in fact I have no startup flag at all.
