Hi all,
I just recently upgraded to Ubuntu and even though the distro comes with pd debs included when I install the package or even if I try to compile from source the following happens regardless of what flags I pass to pd:
ico@64bit-ubuntu:~/Desktop/pd-0.38-4-devel-1$ pd -verbose Pd version 0.38.4 devel compiled 20:48:09 Jun 2 2005 port 5400 TCL_LIBRARY="/usr/local/lib/pd/tcl/library" TK_LIBRARY="/usr/local/lib/pd/tk/library" "/usr/local/lib/pd/bin/pd-gui" 5400 Waiting for connection request...
Obviously, if I don't use "verbose" flag I don't get the printout below the call, but whichever way I try to spawn the application (including various flag combinations), the end result is the same: the pd at this point simply waits (hangs) as if there is no connection to be made.
Ctrl+c at this point gives me:
Pd: signal 2
I tried prepackaged deb for ubuntu, as well as 0.37.1 extended and 0.38.4 devel non-extended versions from source and they all behave in the same fashion.
What is interesting is that there are no /usr/local/lib/pd/tcl/library and /usr/local/lib/pd/tk/library folders, but even when I tried sym-linking them to appropriate lib folders, that still failed. Furthermore, from looking into other people's posts, apparently on their machines this worked as I saw, according to their included logs, that their versions of pd also looked into these folders.
To make the matters worse, I am in a quite bit of a time bind and therefore I would greatly appreciate any help I can get in this matter.
Thank you very much!
Best wishes,
Ico
