Problems with "./configure --prefix=~/pd ...etc... && make && make install" to an empty directory "~/pd" resolved by making the following directories manually (install complained about "no such file or directory"):
This may be related to the fact that the unix shell only expands leading tildes. compare the results of:
echo ~ echo ~/blahblah echo --prefix=~
I figured that you can safely write $HOME instead of ~ and it works perfectly, because then, it gets replaced by a real name _before_ running ./configure, instead of _during_.
