Hmm, something different, but still not running:

hans@palatschinken bin $ cp ../src/pd.tk .
hans@palatschinken bin $ ./pd-l2ork -stderr -d 3
set pd_whichmidiapi 2
pdtk_pd_startup {Pd version 0.42-6extended-l2ork-20121007

normal
set pd_whichmidiapi 2
tcl: /media/share/code/pd-l2ork/pd/bin/pd.tk: can't open script
