Hi Ivica, This may just be leftovers from a previous install: When I run pd by typing in '/usr/local/bin/pd-l2ork' it works fine.
When I run it by typing pd-l2ork, I get:
sh: /usr/bin/pd-gui: not found
And it just waits there until I hit <ctrl-c>.
Any hints?

Actually, it seems that the default installer in packages/linux_make/ folder fails to produce sane binary when building a tarbz2 rather than a deb. First of all it keeps running dpkg-shlibdeps even when running make tarbz2 as it has an if statement that changes it to deb (if deb package is present) and then it assumes that binary should be built in /usr/bin directory rather than in /usr/local/bin.
Hans, shouldn't the following code be under the package: part? Otherwise it overrides tarbz2 settings if one has dpkg-deb installed regardless of what the user has input and results in erroneous build, no?
# if machine has dpkg-deb, build a Debian package ifeq ($(shell test -x /usr/bin/dpkg-deb && echo YES),YES) PACKAGE_TYPE = deb else PACKAGE_TYPE = tarbz2 endif
Actually, moving this does not work under package: heading due to the way makefile structure works. That said, I think it is broken and it should simply go away together with package: heading as it is not documented nor does it provide anything useful that "make tarbz2" or "make deb" already don't do. On top of that it breaks the build process. This way even doing a simple "make test_locations" takes forever until the whole thing goes through the shlibdeps mess. OTOH I am not sure how to then force generation of dependencies which depends upon PACKAGE_TYPE variable. Any ideas?
