Hi List,
I'm new to this list, but a long time user of PD. There is a way to keep pd-extended aligned to the current stable release of pd-vanilla?
yes: invest manpower.
I've noticed that pd-extend carries a quite old version of pd, and no updates in a while. The official web pages, says that a rolling-release pd-extend is on working, but again, no updates since alpha released on 01/02/2013 (if I'm not wrong).
maybe. the latest (unstable) Pd-extended can always be found at: http://apt.puredata.info/auto-build/latest/
Is there a simple'n dirty way to assembly pd-extended from pd-vanilla by myself?
depends on what you expect from Pd-extended. PdX is a slightly modified "pd" binary PLUS a lot of externals. you cannot get the slightly modified pd core from pd-vanilla. if you are only interested in the externals, you could copy them over from a nightly Pd-extended build to your Pd-vanilla installation.
even better would be to just use the debian packages of pd and the externals you want.
