well, because i didnt apt-get pd to begin with, and now its quite customized with other externals... will this externals pkg trample the rest of my installed pd?
It will trample on your externals and will install the Debian Pd, because it depends on it.
There are various ways around it. One is to build your own Pd as a debian package. This is very easy done by "fakeroot debian/rules binary" after copying the "debian" directory from the deb or from CVS. I could explain the details, if there is interest.
You can do the same for the externals: There is a directory "externals/debian" in the CVS, which makes this very easy for Debian users.
It's good to use a CVS checkout for this, not some packages which might be a bit old.
A third solution is going to "externals/build/linux" and type "make" there, then copy the externals you want somewhere in your Pd-path (or add "externals/build/linux" to your path. This is the easiest, building debs is the most clean solution, which isn't hard at all, too.
